Angela Easterling

Angela Easterling was raised in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the daughter of a Baptist minister. Much of her childhood was spent on the farm that has been in her family for seven generations. Country roots run deep for Angela, a native of Taylors, South Carolina; but ironically, it wasn't until she moved to Los Angeles, that the country calling in her soul became a siren's song. A performer all her life, Angela had begun playing guitar and writing songs while studying at Emerson College in Boston. More and more her music returned to the place her heart called home. Angela has embraced her heritage in a big way as a writer and an artist on her debut album, "Earning Her Wings", chosen as "Americana Pick of the Year" by Smart Choice Music. She is currently touring the East Coast, having appeared on the bill with such artists as Lucinda Williams, Deana Carter, Dave Alvin, Victoria Williams and Michelle Shocked out west. She opened for the legendary Ray Price (at the Birchmere), Suzy Bogguss (Sellersville Theatre) as well as the Oak Ridge Boys and Radney Foster. Angela's music has been played on such radio stations as Indie 103.1 in Los Angeles and featured in commercials (Southwestern Bell). Several of her songs were used in the series "Horsepower" on Animal Planet. For more info on Angela, including bio, tour dates, and audio downloads, please visit www.angelaeasterling.com.
