Daniel was born and raised as the youngest child in his family, beside four siblings. He had a very carefree childhood, growing up with his parents who, as he said, were the main reason for his happiness, although unfortunately his father died when Daniel was six. His interest in music started developing in his teenage years, but after finishing high school O’Donnell decided to enroll at Galway Regional College tostudy banking, but simply didn’t fit in, so he decided to become a singer.
Daniel contacted his sister Margo, who had already became a successful singer, and asked her for help, and thanks to her Daniel entered the entertainment industry, joining her band in 1980 upon leaving college. However, since he wasn’t getting enough opportunities as an individual within the band, he decided to record a record of his own. This happened in February 1983 when he released his first single called “My Donegal Shore” using a modest budget of his own. The same year, he formed his first band, which just as quickly disbanded leading Daniel to form “The Grassroots”. A couple of years later, while performing he was spotted by the manager of the Ritz label who introduced him to Sean Reilly, who became his manager from then on. Thanks to this cooperation, O’Donnell gained major support in his career, and became more and more popular, eventually selling out concerts throughout England, thus increasing his net worth to a large degree.
By the middle of ‘the 90s, Daniel had become the public “icon” of Ireland and Great Britain, appearing on the most popular TV shows and winning various awards, including being named Donegal Person of the Year in 1989 and earning the Irish Entertainer of the Year Award in the years 1989, 1992 and 1996. His hit single “I Just Want To Dance With You” became his first chart single in the UK in 1992 and led to his appearance on the highly rated TV show “Top Of The Pops”. All these helped his net worth to grow.
After twenty UK Top 40 albums, fifteen Top 40 singles and ten million sold records, O’Donnell was awarded an Honorary MBE (Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) in 2002. Apart from his extraordinary success in Ireland and Britain, Daniel also gained popularity in the US, charting 18 of his albums in the Top 20 of the United States Billboard’s World Music Album Chart. Some of his most recent activity includes his appearance on the British TV talent show “Strictly Come Dancing” and starring with his wife in their own TV program “Daniel and Majella’s B&B Road Trip”, both in autumn 2015.
Behind the scenes, Daniel is known as a great philanthropist, as he has been involved in numerous charity events over the years, helping the poor and orphaned children mostly from Romania, and housing them in Ireland for a period. When it comes to his private life, O’Donnell married singer and reality television star Majella McLennan in November 2002, after a three-year relationship. They reside in County Donnell and occasionally at their second home in Tenerife. O’Donnell is fluent in Irish Gaelic.

Neal Schon Net Worth
Neal George Joseph Schon was born on 27th February 1954 at Tinker AFB (Air Force Base), Oklahoma USA, of Italian and German descent. Neal Schon is a rock guitarist, songwriter and vocalist, best known for being an important member of several hugely popular bands, namely Santana, Bad English and Journey.
So just how rich is Neal Schon? Neal’s net worth has been calculated to be over $30 million, amassed during his successful career of more than 40 years in the music industry.
Neal Schon Net Worth $30 Million
Neal Schon was lucky to be born into a musical family – his father Mathew Schon was a famous musician and mother Barbara Schon sang in a band. So Schon picked his first guitar at the age of five years, and starting at early age is usually a way to success. His first career steps started at the age of 15 with the band Santana, in preference to joining Eric Clapton in the band Derek and the Dominos, and debuting with some vocals on Santana’s album Santana III. Being such a great musician at such young age with the possibility to choose between two iconic bands, he went on and started making his money. He also played for Azteca but very briefly.
In 1973 Neal Schon formed his now legendary band Journey. He subsequently released five solo albums, and fourteen studio albums with the band. This must be the main flow into his net worth. Importantly, he is the only band member who has not changed through the years. He has taken part in every tour of the band, and sang on all their albums, so no doubt this longevity with Journey has increased the overall amount of Neal Schon’s net worth as well. Apart from this, he has also collaborated with famous musicians such as keyboardist Jan Hammer, Sammy Hagar and Paul Rodgers on short-term projects.
Neal Schon is as great a vocalist, as he is a guitar virtuoso. Two talents double the money earned, does it not? Let’s talk about his musical influences, of whom there were plenty. He has said that he was highly influenced by the 1960’s, musicians from that era such as Gladys Knight and Aretha Franklin. Then he put some blues to the mix, namely B.B. King and added some guitar-based influences, including of course Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton as well as Wes Montgomery. This is probably Neal Schon’s key to fame – adding the best ingredients from different musical eras.
Schon was always proud of his guitars. He started with acoustic Stella guitar followed by Gibson ES-335. At present he became interested in Xotic guitars. Schon was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in August 2013, which made him, if possible, even more famous. This is considered to be an accomplishment of a lifetime for any musician.
In his not-so-private personal life, Neal Schon has married five times, first to Tena Austin(1976-86), then Beth Buckley(1987-92), Dina Gioeli(1993-99), and Amber Kozan(2001-08). In 2013 he married Michaele Salahi. He has five children.
