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. 

'Our home was always filled with music...I fell in love with Stan Kenton and Buddy Rich and Nancy Wilson...at my Dad's knee while he corrected History papers for the kids at Santa Rosa High School. 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
