Angela O'Neill

Born: March 13

Angela O'Neill was born and raised in the beautiful Napa Valley...in Calistoga, California.  With a high school graduating class of 30...she's not much of a big city girl, at heart.

My sister and my Mom have beautiful voices...and we sang and had my parent's music on ...everyday...all the time!  

I started playing the oboe in 3rd grade and played all the way through college...my ardor for music has never cooled ..to this day
