I’m a professional Scottish funeral 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.

I perform the bagpipes weekly throughout The Lake District & Cumbria. Regular destinations include Kendal, Windermere, Ambleside, Barrow-in-Furness, Grasmere, Keswick, Penrith, Cockermouth & Carlisle. I also travel to Lancashire, Yorkshire & further afield on request.

Most importantly, I take pride in every performance and value the feedback and appreciation I receive from customers.
