Today we’d like to introduce you to Angela Peel
Hi Angela, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
As a singer, songwriter and occasional actress, I suppose my story started with Mariah Carey’s first album when I was about 10. Her voice, her lyrics…it all spoke to me and that’s where I picked up the pen and paper and began writing poems that evolved into songs over the course of my life and pursuit of my career in music. I have many inspirations I continued to collect, including Stevie Wonder, Muse, Aerosmith, Alanis Morrisette, Beth Hart, Cat Stevens, Tool… Gospel greats like Daryl Coley…I could go on lol. I’m an artist who loves and indulges and plays with ALL genres of music and in my writing, combining genres has become my “signature ” so to speak.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
I’ve definitely faced obstacles, however I like to look at then as lessons along the way. Everything from the trial and error of finding an acting agent to learning the in and outs of the entertainment industry including, but not limited to, who NOT to work with….knowing my value and gaining the confidence to ask for exactly that when I’m hired as a session vocalist.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
I specialize in vocals in all genres including classical voice, voice over, music production, occasionally musical theater and I’m equally proud of it all. I simply cant pick one. I believe my willingness to stick my fingers in all performance “pots” sets me apart while at the same time, I dont place myself above or below any of my fellow performers and artists out there. We’re all unique and theres room for all of us.
Where we are in life is often partly because of others. Who/what else deserves credit for how your story turned out?
I’ve had a village of mentors and supporters for whom I’m grateful. Lorian Stein-Schwaber, Keith Carter Sr, Cassandra Peak, members of my own family, of course and everyone I’ve had the pleasure to work with have all taught and contributed to molding me into the artist I am today.
