Lisa Wordley

Music has been a lifelong passion for Lisa—from singing into a vacuum cleaner as a child to studying classical piano from the age of nine. In the ‘80s, she became a keyboard player, performing with numerous club and rock bands across southern England, from open-air festivals to London’s iconic Marquee Club.

Lisa has also worked as a session musician in renowned studios such as The Crypt, and is an accomplished flugelhorn and cornet player. In recent years, she’s expanded her talents behind the scenes as a sound engineer at major music festivals—or simply enjoying time with her guitar.

Liesa Smith

The “other” Liesa — yes, it gets confusing! Second in command to the little one and usually running around like a loon in the background.

I love classic rock, discovering new sounds from our students, and occasionally jumping on the drums. Mostly, I handle social media, marketing, photos, and videos to spread the word about The Rock Project.

​

You’ll also find me doing roadie and sound tech duties — and yes, fixing XLR leads (grrr!). I’m always on the lookout for gigs and events where our students can perform, grow in confidence, and shine.
