Kathryn Akers Local Music Journalist On October 2nd, I had the absolute privilege of going to Audrey Price’s show at Mohawk Austin. Before seeing her live, I was quite impressed with Price’s songs on streaming services, but her music is so much better live. Audrey Price’s stage presence is unlike anything I’ve ever seen.
