My fees depend on date, time and location of the event.

I was taught the bagpipes as a child and have been playing for over 25 years. I have played and competed with various pipe bands and now compete with Manchester Phoenix Pipe Band. I teach the bagpipes privately and I'm also employed by the M.O.D to teach the bagpipes at the Army Foundation College in Harrogate to junior soldiers. I have appeared on the ITV Series 'The Dales' as well as 'The Lakes' playing at weddings featured on the programs. I have performed at 1000's of weddings, funerals, parties, and other events and have countless positive testimonials from very happy clients. I am booked every New Years Eve to play at Thorpe Park Hotel in Leeds, as well as Napoleon's Casino in Sheffield. I also receive repeat Burns Night bookings from Loch Fyne in Sheffield. I have a very good relationship with a number of funeral directors in Sheffield, Barnsley, Leeds, Manchester and Nottingham, all of whom use me as their first port of call whenever they have a client that needs a bagpiper. ...

Ed played as a surprise for Hilary at our wedding. She was thrilled to bits and loved to hear Ed as did all our guests. Ed walked us from the Wedding to the venue and has made our wedding even more memorable. It was great -thank you. Brian (Derby)

"If I could have given 10 it would be 11. Absolutely amazing! I have written to thank him for the wonderful performance for my Husband and Family. Such a smart, professional guy with a lovely way about him. Everyone enjoyed it and it was the talking point of the get together.

Kind regards.
