Born: October 1, 1943 in Abrams Village, PEI
Angele was born into a musical family of thirteen brothers and sisters which helped in her desire to play guitar and piano.
In 1963 she made her performing debut in Moncton, and later Quebec City, where she completed her Bachelor of Arts Degree. After a one-year teaching job, Arsenault decided to pursue a career as a singer and songwriter. To this end, she toured the country several times, playing wherever she could.
In 1975, she settled in Montreal and recorded her first album which was followed in 1976 by an English-language album which received critical raves.
Her second French-language album, 'Libre', was released in 1977 and sold 300, 000 copies. The album firmly established her in the ears of Quebec and placed her on the charts.
Three more successful albums followed Libre, it was a period of sold-out shows, awards and tremendous success. After taking time off to re-assess her life and career, Arsenault moved into the field of radio which absorbed two years of her time.
In 1988, she returned to the live stage but it would be in 1994 that she would resume her recording career with the release of 'Transparente' on Justin Time Records.
