Hi I’m Mike
I’ve been playing the pipes for 40 years now. Started as a kid and played with my local band in Dublin. Howth St Lawrence Pipe Band.
In 1990 I moved to Manchester where I played for a couple of years with the City of Manchester Pipe Band. Later played for the Greater Manchester Pipe Band. In 2012 I joined the Manchester Fire and Rescue Service Pipe Band, in the role as Pipe Major, where we competed in various parades and competitions all over England and Scotland.
Some highlights were playing at the MEN arena, with the world famous Andre Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra, The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra at the Birmingham Symphony Hall and The Chieftans at the Manchester Bridgwater Hall.
Also regularly play for Burns night suppers, Weddings, Indian weddings also catered for where Dhol drummers can also play. Birthday parties and corporate events.

We booked Mike last minute for our wedding, he kept in contact throughout the run up to the wedding, making sure he knew exactly what we wanted to make it perfect for us.
It was amazing thank you! 🤍
