Mike and Tina share a love of live music and a passion for nurturing young performers. Tina’s musical journey began in childhood, learning guitar and piano before later joining Mike at Rock Project Encore, where she plays keyboards and he plays bass.

​

As parents, they became deeply involved in promoting children’s performing arts — from running sound and costumes for local pantomimes to directing and producing youth performances. They’ve also volunteered at dance festivals, with Tina now serving on the Management Committee for the Royal Berkshire Festival of Dance.

​

Although their own children are now grown, Mike and Tina remain dedicated to helping the next generation discover the joy of music, collaboration, and performance.
