With her charming and witty lyrics, together with catchy melodies, the song inspires others to stand up for themselves. O´Neill really does dive in and tells a story about her upbringing in a very direct but also genuine way.
¨Daddy´s Pride I wrote completely in 20 minutes, the only song my producer didn´t change a
note. It´s my parents selling my guitars. The biggest failure is for a parent not to teach a child to
be proud and support them. I had the strength to stand up and find it on my own. I know many
don´t and stay lost and insecure.¨
O´Neill draws on a lot of her own experience, as a child, growing up in an abusive and alcoholic environment, she had to develop coping strategies. Now, O´Neill brings this experience to bring the listener a message of compassion, hope and understanding.
O´Neil has released lots of albums throughout her music career, but her acclaimed album “I´m Not That Girl” is one that really showcases her roots and country sound. Her musical influences include Melissa Etheridge, Fleetwood Mac, Cyndi Lauper and Dolly Parton.
