About Angela:
Blair attended Booker T. Washington High, Dallas’ arts magnate school, known for fostering such talent as Erykah Badu and Norah Jones.
Her gift for singing and entertaining was evident at a very young age. At the tender age of seven, family members and friends could hear her belting out everything from Aretha Franklin to Whitney Houston. Church was always a major part of Blair’s upbringing. She secretly practiced, with her cousin and pianist, after church service each Sunday. At age eleven, Blair eventually put her lessons to the test by taking first place in a contest hosted by the church, as she sang Amazing Grace, in front of enthusiastic church members. By the age of fifteen, she opened her first concert for gospel legends, the Mighty Clouds of Joy and 11-‐time Grammy Award winning artist Shirley Caesar.
In 2002, Blair was recognized by a Statewide New Artist Showcase in Austin as Texas’ Female Vocalist of the Year. Two years later she was labeled UK’s Greatest Voice You’ve Never Heard.
