Tin Pan Annie Music has been an award-winning provider of educational live music for babies and children for nearly 30 years.
Nowadays Tin Pan Annie is still a family business and has become one of London’s most respected and well-loved names in educational live children’s music.
The Tin Pan Family is Annie, her two super musically talented sons Charlie and Harry and her amazingly supportive hubby, Richard. Between them, they have all been instrumental (no pun intended) in the rich and wonderful Tin Pan Annie story!
Once upon a time, Tin Pan Annie was just Annie, and she spent every spare minute making and sharing music with anyone and everyone. From leading and teaching music projects in her local school to staging her own musical theatre productions with her friends, Annie’s passion for music and bringing people together shone brightly for all to see. She even became the assistant to the Director of an International School’s Orchestra!
Everywhere Annie bought her music, laughter and happiness followed.
Seeing how music always bought a smile, Annie grew more and more passionate about the science and physiology that underpinned people’s reactions to live music. This curiosity fed discovery and became the main subject of her University degree in Physiology and Biochemistry, where she focused specifically on the importance of live music on the developing brain pre-and post-natally. Of course, all the while she supported her studies by teaching guitar, running children’s musical parties and crooning to romancing diners in the local Italian restaurant!
Annie went on to share her love for biochemistry as a science teacher at the prestigious Tiffin Girls’ School until her life changed forever as she began her greatest journey yet… becoming a mother!
