Poised for Exit
A Story of two Brothers, their Music and their Give-Back Mission
A Story of two Brothers, their Music and their Give-Back Mission
It all started for Julie when she attended a Christmas Concert by the O'Neill Brothers that impressed her so much, she decided to invite them to be on the show. Both brothers are accomplished musicians; mostly piano, and have had their music downloaded over 2 Billion times worldwide! They've been inducted into the MInnesota Music Hall of Fame, and besides all the concerts they play and other businesses they run, they recently launched O'Neill Foundation that helps local citizens manage their lives with financial help that comes to them in various ways.
When they were young, music was strongly encouraged among the family members with talent. When Tim went off to college, his mother asked how she'd keep the music in the house when he was gone, so he recorded her favorite songs on piano for her. From there, a recording and concert career sprung. Ryan found himself interested in not just music but real estate, and over the years has built The Minnesota Real Estate Team of Remax Results. The largest Remax team in the country.
