June Tan

From Music Teacher to Lawyer to Pianist/Vocalist

About Me

June has taken a circuitous route back to music, her first love. Exploring outside the music world in an effort to broaden her life experiences, she took up law and became a barrister of Lincoln's Inn, London. After practising law for several years, she met Vincent Chin, a young musician who had a fiery passion for music and that fire in turn spread to June's heart. From the formation of this duo came the opportunity to play gigs which rekindled and nurtured June's love for music so much so that she decided to stop practising law and start practising music fulltime!
