ABOUT TIM...
Tim Hope hails from Columbus, Ohio, first becoming involved in music in his early school years in the church choir. He began pursuing his creative talents at an early age by playing the cello and bass guitar. He began training as a Disc Jockey with B.K. Kirkland and Les Brown, the head DJ at the local radio station. Life happened and he found himself driving a truck for a time… 40-years. While participating in karaoke and discovering singing was his passion, Tim launched his professional singing career in 2006.
Tim teamed up with C.C. Jones in 2006 who “taught me stage presence” he reminisces. Together they performed with a 15-21 piece orchestra exciting audiences in corporate events, fund raisers. Finding bands were constantly changing, Tim branched out on his own in 2014. He really is a self-made man and a self-starter! Nothing was holding him down now. In 2018 Tim met George McCrae, singer of the Grammy-nominated (1974) hit song Rock Your Baby. Tim became good friends with George and his wife, Yvonne and started singing together with him at several of Tim’s shows.
He has performed for corporate events such as The Breast Cancer Society, The Boys and Girls Club of America Awards Banquet, Hot Pipes Showcase for Singers (as a performer and Promotions Associate), Turqoise ball for Sun Health and others.

ABOUT DEBBY…
Debby Wesselo was born and raised in The Netherlands. From the age of 3 she was already a music lover. When her dad played the keyboards she was standing beside him, wearing a headphone and singing in her own child language. In junior high school she joined the church choir playing the flute. Although she always listened to music and sang along with her favourites, she never really knew she could sing. She did find herself comfertable on stage though. She won several lip sinc contests when she was younger and also in her professional career working for the government she has always had a public role and spoke on stages a lot.
Debby has always been a traveler and in 2021 Tim and Debby met in Aruba. Tim heard Debby sing in a karaoke show and immediately knew she had talent that was bottled up. He encouraged her to bring out the talent she has and started inviting her to his shows. She started learning a few songs and was a guest singer for a while. Since the beginning of 2023 Debby gave up her job and is now a fulltime singer.
