Professional & Reliable
I’m a professional Scottish bagpiper for hire. Available 7 days a week. I grew up in Glasgow and started learning the pipes at 11 years old. Then moved to the north of England in my early 20s. I have 30 years continuous experience playing to a high standard with pipe bands in Scotland and England. I’ve performed at hundreds of events as a solo musician. Including weddings, funerals, birthday parties, and more.
Most importantly, I take pride in every performance and value the feedback and appreciation I receive from customers.

I’m getting married in Grasmere this December. It would be great to have a Scottish Bagpiper play the guests into the evening reception. Are you available please?
Sheila, I’ve played the bagpipes for several weddings in Grasmere, Keswick and the surrounding area recently. So I’d be very happy to attend your event in December. I’ll email you and we can discuss the details. Thanks, Malcolm
