Booked for Birthday party

Gary was great. Very professional & friendly man. He played at my mums 80th birthday BBQ on Saturday. Everyone loved the pipe music & he was happy to play requests and wasn’t in a rush to leave. Will definitely use Gary again and will recommend to friends.

Booked for Funeral

Andrew was superb at my mum's recent funeral. Due to covid restrictions we weren't allowed to have him play at the cemetery so he came to her house and led a procession from her home with the hearse. Then got in his car and went to the cemetery where he stood outside the cemetery gates and played. It was very emotional and his playing is second to none. We couldn't give her the send off this very special lady deserved but Andrew definitely helped us to commemorate her wonderful life. I would highly recommend Andrew.

Booked for Funeral

My family and I booked Andrew to play at a family members funeral. He was outstanding! Thankyou so much for a perfect performance, I’m sure our dad/grandad/husband would have been looking down with the biggest smile!

Booked for Anniversary

Andy made our wedding anniversary celebration a very special day indeed. We were very moved hearing him play Highland Cathedral so beautifully as we had this at our wedding twenty two years ago. He communicated very well as soon as I made the booking and was very punctual. He looked incredibly smart and dapper and he played the bagpipe absolutely beautifully. It was just perfect. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to find another excuse to book him again.

Booked for Wedding

This lovely young lady was an absolute pleasure to pipe for us at our wedding. She was impeccably dressed, and played with expertise and confidence. She was very accommodating to our needs and very flexible with pricing associated with what we asked. I would recommend her totally to anybody wanting a first class service. Thankyou Shonagh. We loved every minute. 😊
