Her influences include Amy Winehouse, Lauryn Hill, Billie Holiday and Etta James. ⠀ ⠀ She was recently selected by Spotify to be one of their AAPI (Asian American Pacific Island) Artists of the Month. Park shares that it is “inspiring to see Asian-Americans and women of color becoming successful in creative fields because of how difficult it is for people with these identities to gain recognition. Ultimately, having these women to look up to helps me find comfort in knowing that my aspirations for my career as an Asian-American artist are possible.”⠀ ⠀ Find our full playlist celebrating Asian Pacific American Heritage Month at the link in our bio.
Happy 80th birthday to the songwriting legend, Bob Happy 80th birthday to the songwriting legend, Bob Dylan! Slide 1: Bob Dylan & Suze Rotolo in NYC, 1963, for the cover of “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan.” 📷: Don Hunstein Slide 2: Picture taken on February 10th, 1965 in NYC. 📷: Richard Avedon Slide 3: Picture taken on FDR Drive and E. 10th Street, May 21st, 1990 NYC.
