More About Angelina

I am an artist and tht is all i have ever and will ever be. Music is all i know. Growing up in NYC i was surrounded by all the different cultures and genres of music one could imagine. I was very lucky to have had all that diversity amongst me and used it to my advantage musically. I attended Profession Performing Arts High School as a dancer and later a musical thater major. I was intriduced to Broadway where I found one of my callings. I bring a piece of all my musical outlets to the table when performing and writing. Athough my surroundings may have changed throughout the yars i fing that my influences have somewhat remained the same. I have always been a big fan of Motown, Old Country, Broadway and Blues music. I feel that my music can not be classified in one category. I bring a sense of soul and blues to all styles and genres. I want to share my music with the world in hopes of spreading my message of love and equality throughout the masses.

Fun Stuff about the Artist

Life on the Street

I was performing in the subway station in NYC and this couple came up to me and asked if i would play a song for them . I said i would of course and they requested the song which i shall fail to mention. As i was singing they started to dance and i noticed one of their hands begin to roam the others body in more than a PG way. I kept playing and by the end of the song they were half naked and ready to seal the deal. I saw them duck into one of the conductor's booths one the train they ran onto after i was done playing. I never forgot them ......or that song!

Embarrassing Moment

I was in 7th grade at a talent show and the cord to my microphone disconnected from the mic. I just kept singing and shaking my head like the little div i was....attitude you cant buy.

My Instrument

My favorite guitar was an Alvarez 25th Anniversary Black Silver Diamond Speecial Edition. A man who had taken me in from the street had been pressuring me to be more "friendly" with him. I fought his advances...he smashed my guitar. It was the only thing i had in the world and the only thing that meant anything to me. I still look for a guitar similar to that one to this day . I havent ever quite played the same since.
My guitars all have names...they are named after the women in my life or the women i want to meet.
I name my guitars after women because i dont believe there is anything in this world more beautiful than a woman.
