Angel Heart (also known as "Dr Angel" by her friends) is a doctor, pilot, human rights and mental health advocate and abuse survivor. Singing is her passion, and she has sung professionally as part of a band. Dr Angel hopes to spread her love, passion and positivity via her original songs to people in the hopes of improving their lives and, in a nutshell, making our world a better place to live in. 

A survivor of severe domestic violence, Dr Angel was forced to flee her home with her children in order to save all their lives. Fast forward several years, and Dr Angel has lived internationally, her professional skills propelling her to achieve international acclaim in her field. Dr Angel has also written and published several articles and books within her professional field, two of which are her biographies of surviving sexual abuse and domestic violence, and her battle with mental illness, discrimination and systemic injustice. Dr Angel sees life as an adventure and continues to love, appreciate and show immense gratitude for the people who have supported and stood by her.

Dr Angel started her own TikTok channel in early 2023 and, within several months, gained traction and was taken on by a recording studio whose producer encouraged her to record her own self-written, original songs. 


"Polka Dot Socks" is Angel Heart's third single album, following "You" and "Always My Light". Angel Heart decided to tug at her fans' heartstrings with "Polka Dot Socks" and give us an insight into her childhood. This song was written as a tribute to Angel Heart's uncle, the man who raised her and played the role of both mother and father to her after her biological parents abused and abandoned her. Her uncle played a pivotal role in Angel Heart's life and in making her the successful woman she is today. On their first outing together to a cinema, a young Angel Heart and her uncle walked hand-in-hand past a row of shops where he asked her if she wanted anything. It was there Angel Heart noticed a pair of polka dot socks and became fixated on it, wanting nothing else. Her uncle laughed and bought the pair of socks for her, teasing that at least her feet would not get cold in the air-conditioned cinema. Angel Heart cherished the pair of polka dot socks and always wanted to wear it (even to school!) because it always reminded her of her uncle and the special bond they shared. Many years later, when her uncle tragically passed away, Angel Heart always looked back at the special memories and times they shared and vowed she would one day honour the special man who never gave up on her, who showered her with unconditional love, and was the first person in her life who encouraged her to sing her heart out. "You have the voice of an angel," he always encouraged her, "so never stop singing!"

Angel Heart dedicates "Polka Dot Socks" to all the amazing fathers and father-figures who have stood by and protected their daughters and continue to support and love them unconditionally.  

We were able to speak with Angel Heart about her music, dream duet, and more!

How did you get started in music?
Singing has always been my passion and “therapy” since I was a child. I have sung professionally in choirs and in my own band. It has always been a hobby and a form of positive “escape” for me from a traumatic childhood. I never intended to pursue it as a career until early 2023. I started a TikTok channel just singing cover songs and I was discovered by my current producer. At first I thought it was a joke played on me by my friends but it turned out to be real. I was ecstatic. My producer offered me a contract and I began singing all the songs that I had written over the years and releasing them. That was how I entered the music industry.

Who were your favorite artists growing up?
Westlife, Boyzone, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Shania Twain, Tricia Yearwood, Dolly Parton, Garth Brooks, Ed Sheerin, Enrique Iglesias… too many!!!

What inspires your music?
I write the lyrics to all my songs and my lyrics come from my own (and sometimes my clients’) heartfelt personal life experiences. Being a doctor, a pilot and mental health specialist, I utilise music as a means to reach out to people who have suffered (and / or are suffering) from mental illness via my own personal experiences weaved into the lyrics of my songs. I believe music is a powerful and effective means of empowering people and I love that I have been blessed with the skills to be able to do that. 

How would you describe your music to someone who's never heard your music?
Heartfelt, soulful, meaningful, touching, real, authentic and original! You feel my music in your heart and soul 

What would a dream collaboration be?
A duet / concert / performance with my favourite artists / bands (Westlife, Ed Sheerin, Tricia Yearwood!!!)

What are you currently working on?
My 22nd song! I’m multi-tasking. I’m also currently finalising my 6th-8th songs for release at the end of this year and early 2025.

What are your ultimate goals for your career?
The release of many more songs and music videos! I would like to be involved in more interviews and hopefully more live performances. And, importantly, I would like to be able to be signed on by a large recording studio / label who would fund my music!
