Here is a brief sample of the many responses Tim Carey gets from his customers:
"I am very proud of my Scottish and Irish heritage and spoke with several pipers before selecting Tim for my wedding. The decision became easy as I quickly realized there are very few pipers on the East Coast with Tim’s ability. He really got the reception hall up and dancing with his incredible jigs and reels.”
- From a Wedding in Baltimore , MD , April 2008
"Tim is a genuine professional who added so much to my mother’s 70th birthday celebration. Family members still talk about it!"
- From a birthday party in Fairfax , VA , May 2006
“Tim’s beautiful music at my father’s funeral was such a comfort to me and my family. We are forever grateful for that. I know dad was in Heaven smiling down on us.”
- From a funeral at Arlington National Cemetery , November 2007
“Being a piper myself, I was thrilled to have someone of Tim’s caliber play at my wedding. He filled the church with such beautiful music that now all my family wants to know why I don’t sound like that! Thanks Tim for being such a powerful and stirring part of our very special day.”
- From a wedding in Rockville , MD , June 2007
"I met Tim Carey many years ago when he came to play his bagpipes at a cemetery that I was working at. Having been in the cemetery industry since the early '80s, I have had heard other pipers before at many services, but when Tim began playing Amazing Grace I soon realized that there was a BIG difference in the quality of this type of musician. During this performance I was working and not mourning so I was able to focus on the music. It was so beautiful and Tim's passion was so evident that it literally brought a tear to my eye and goose bumps to my body. I knew at that time that we needed to connect with him and let other families know that he was available. Since that time, I have had Tim play at dozens of funerals at many of my cemeteries and he participates in all of our holiday services as well. He is truly a Master Piper and I am honored to be able to recommend him to anyone looking to have bagpipes be a part of their burial service."
