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!

Session Manager

Patrick Reece

Patrick is our session manager and guitar tutor in Aberystwyth, bringing over 20 years of experience as a guitarist and vocalist in bands across the UK. His current projects have earned national radio airplay and appearances at major venues and festivals alongside artists like Kool & The Gang, De La Soul, and Imperial Leisure. A BA graduate in Education, Patrick applies his inclusive teaching philosophy to create friendly, tailored lessons that help students of all levels grow musically and personally.

“I would encourage anyone thinking their child might benefit from playing an instrument to give the Rock Project a go. The tuition from the music teachers is fantastic and I've seen first hand how much my daughter has progressed on guitar as well as in confidence over the last few months."
