"Billy played as a surprise for my Scottish Dad’s 80th birthday. We had a small surprise party and Billy worked with me in advance to decide the timings and what to play and it was just amazing. The range of music and quality of delivery is simply excellent. Beyond that Billy’s love of playing and of people made the day. Billy stayed with us after his main set, chatting with us and firing up the pipes again a number of times. He made every single guest feel special and everyone, especially, my Dad still talk often and with great fondness about Billy and how he made a special day unforgettable. When I came to this website looking for a piper I could never have imagined how special our piper would be. Thank you Billy and Anita."

"With only two days notice Patrick fulfilled my expectations on what was a very emotional and sad day. Communication in emails between us was very good and timely and nothing was too much trouble. He arrived well in advance of the funeral to give him time to warm up the pipes and all those arriving were very appreciative. The deceased, my partner was from Scotland. He loved the bagpipes and would have been mightily impressed. My original Piper, sadly, was suddenly taken ill and as an organisation you certainly lived up to your name of 'Last minute musicians.' At a very anxious time, with constant updates, you made the whole booking process very easy. Thank you. I would highly recommend you. "

"We really enjoyed having Bob play the pipes at our wedding. He was able to play the traditional tunes we wanted to a high standard despite it being 30 degrees on the day and he looked the part. He was friendly and fun."

"A Scottish Wedding would not be complete without the sound of the bagpipes - George did a fantastic job at our wedding, a friendly guy and a professional piper and the extra effort to play my new husbands favourite tune added an extra special touch to an already perfect day. "

"Colin played as we left the church for my late fathers funeral, and walked (and played) in front of the funeral car as he was led into the crematorium. A very sad day for us all but a beautiful memory and such a personal tribute to him for which we can't thank Colin enough. Sad but amazing, and commented on by all who attended. Thank you Colin for making such an emotional and devastating day for us into something that holds a beautiful memory for us all. You helped us make a good send off into a 'great' send off. With love x"

"Patrick piped in as the residents ate haggis, neeps and tatties. The room was very emotional in a good way and they all thoroughly enjoyed it. Wonderful playing."

"An accomplished and excellent piper who has played at our Burns Night celebrations for the past four years. Keith is a true professional and brings the guests together for a wonderful evening of poetry and traditional Scottish fare. Thank you Keith and looking forward to your return to us ."

"Keith was fantastic from the moment we first contacted him and asked him to play at our wedding. We were having a Scottish theme and found him on last minute musicians and loved the reviews already given. Keith was prompt with his replies, really helpful and so polite. Keith arrived on the day with enough time to slowly get set up and ensure he was 100% ready by the time he was required. We asked for a few requirements and then left the rest to Keith and his expertise. He was a lovely addition to our wedding and was loved not only by us but our guests. It will be a day we will never forget, topped off by hearing the beautiful sound of bagpipes. So many people told us how happy and welcoming Keith was and we cannot recommend him enough. Thank you again"

"What a character and a lovely man! Had the privilege of meeting spud at a friends wedding and can’t recommend him enough. As soon as that first note came out I had chills down my spine. He gets the balance spot on between professionalism and banter and it’s obvious how much he enjoys what he does. Ya ma wee pal"

"My brother recently died in Australia, and my remaining brother and I couldn't attend his funeral, as like so many other people during these troubled times. We returned to our brother's birth-place, in Lancashire, where there is a family vault, laid flowers and asked Malcolm to play two of my brother's favourite tunes. It was a most moving moment, not just because of the pipes but because of the kindness shown to us both by the piper himself. Although it was a brief ceremony, it was conducted with dignity and consideration. "
