I am lost for words. Jonny made the saddest of days into an unforgettable and beautiful day. Today, I scattered the ashes of my Mum, her beloved dog Harry and my eldest brother. Jonny was the epitome of both professionalism and talent. He piped beautifully and made today what my Mum would have loved. I cannot recommend him enough. If you’re looking for a piper, look no further.

Johnny played the bagpipes at my mum's funeral and he made a sad day absolutely beautiful and full of joy. He was fantastic in supporting me in advance to pick tunes which mum liked and advised me what would work best. On the day he was so respectful and unobtrusive but his exquisite playing filled the air. My mum couldn't have had a better send off and so many folk have commented on how special Johnny made the day.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Johnny. Not only is he an extremely talented musician but from a business point of view, professional, reliable and the booking process was effortless from start to finish. He piped at My Dads funeral in May, during these crazy times. He went above and beyond, giving us options and guidance, tailoring it to our wants and needs, even at short notice. Johnny you absolutely did my Dad proud and we cannot thank you enough!

I myself who works in the funeral industry have hired Jonny for families to play at there loved ones funerals and every one of the families have come back and told me how great he was and that he’s very reliable and very reasonably priced.
As a funeral arranger that is very encouraging for us to hear. So I intend to keep hiring Jonny for any funerals that require a piper and indeed to pass his details on to any one who requires a piper for any event not just funerals.

Jonny piped at my daughter's wedding on Sunday the 5th November, she married a New Zealand boy and a lot of the guests travelled a very long way for their special day, he was brilliant, certainly knows his stuff and a lovely guy, he piped in the guests for the ceremony and came back a few hours later to pipe in the top table. I will be recommending Jonny every time. Thank you very much.

I arranged for Jonathan to play the pipes at my son's wedding on 17th September 2016. He arrived with plenty of time to welcome guests with his music. He knew exactly where to be and when for the ceremony and entrance for wedding meal. His playing was superb and he was immaculately dressed. Jonathan was happy to pose for photos too and was very courteous to us and our guests. Highly recommend Jonathan as part of your special occasion.
