Booked for Wedding

Miriam played beautifully and guests mentioned how nice the music was in the background when playing during our receipt drinks as well as being able to enjoy the music before the ceremony started. She kept in contact throughout the planning stages so I had full confidence on the day. Would highly recommend.

STUART SMRDON17 May 2019

Booked for Birthday party

"Shonagh was on time, professional, flexible and a superb musician playing in difficult circumstances within a nursing home environment with dementia and downs syndrome residents in end of life stages. One resident a former serviceman at the back of the room was crying when she played Farewell to Gib and it clearly invoked many memories for him of a positive nature. Shonagh also played a request which was deeply appreciated by the recipient. Old Lang Syne was appreciated. A privilege to met such a talented young lady"

Whatever you're celebrating, birthdays, anniversaries, family gatherings, leaving do’s, the sight of a Highland Piper in full dress is a great way to mark that special moment. I could play as your guests arrive or pipe the guests of honour to the cake cutting or presentation, or I can simply provide background music. I can arrange a surprise for your guests or maybe a particular piece of music is required that makes that special moment even more meaningful.
