Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

I'm friendly and approachable. Many guests ask me about the pipes and I'm always happy to answer.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

Lots of churches and some lovely reception venues such as Hunagrian Hall, Woodhall, Woolsey theatre and Snape Maltings.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

A "last night of the proms" style concert at Snape Maltings

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I'm pretty flexible about exact timings, just let me know.

How much time do you need to set up?

A little warm up and tuning is required before playing.

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

Yes. I can suggest some great choices for you too.
