Bagpiper
Belper
Public liability insurance of £2 million

Inspired by my Father and Grandfather who played in the Gordon Highlanders during WW2, I started leaning the bagpipes at the age of 12 (now playing for 19 years) and currently playing my Grandad's bagpipes which have been passed down through the generations. I am an accomplished, experienced, and versatile Weddings / Funerals & Events Bagpiper. Playing for events in the UK and internationally, including Egypt, and Australia. I have a wealth of experience providing bespoke services for a variety of engagements and have had the privilege of playing for The Pope when he was visiting in Edinburgh and I've also held the position of Mayor's Piper for Peterborough. Recent UK locations include: London, Kent, Surrey, Oxfordshire, Leicestershire, Cambridgeshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire. My day job as a Self Employed Mortgage and Protection Advisor enables me able to be as flexible as needed for any event you may wish to use my services for.

“We wanted something special to make our wedding as Scottish as possible so what better than a piper?! Ed was responsive, well- priced and an excellent musician. We can't thank you enough.”
