Mike’s other two sons, Michael and Matt, also pursued careers in music and perform as the rock duo, The Pinder Brothers, in Sacramento, California.
Influenced by their father’s work with The Moody Blues, as well as bands like Crosby, Stills & Nash, and Simon & Garfunkel, the duo continues to make music that resonates with fans.
