Customer questions
What do your clients love most about your performances?
I am a professional bagpiper and pride myself with being familiar with most ceremonial procedures. I work as a load piper, part of a Duo or part of a band. I teach and mentor pipers passing on my expertise through to the next generations of students. I take pride with my playing and appearance to provide you with the utmost quality performance.
Which venues have you performed at in the past?
St Gerorges day parade, Memorial services, weddings.
Which artists have you been most influenced by?
Frank Sinatra
What is the most high profile gig you've performed?
Sir Matt Busby memorial, leading the players onto the pitch as the loan piper. Very emotional to have been able to contribute to honour the passing of this great man.
What if my timings change after I've booked you?
We always try our best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run up to the event just let us know.” The more notice we have the better we will be able to accommodate your needs.
Can you provide an iPod/DJ service before and between your sets?
This is not a service I provide.
How much time do you need to set up?
We would need to discuss with you and agree a set lit and order or ceremony. Set up time would depend on distance and if the uniform can be work to the event, or if the distance to your event would require a costume change at the venue. A recommendation of 30 mins but we would discuss this with you.
Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?
The set list is crafted from countless performances and learning what works best but is not inclusive. I am definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.
Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?
HI yes I only need my pipes and uniform, choice of Scottish or Irish tartan, and your play list prior to the event.
Can you learn specific pieces before the event?
If a song isn't included in our song list there may still be a chance we already know it. If there is a special song you'd like please contact to discuss.
