Amazing Grace Piper

When I am booked to perform for an event, you can expect me to stay in touch up to the date that your event is scheduled. I'm a firm believer in keeping the communication lines open so that the event will flow flawlessly. On the date of the scheduled event, I always plan on arriving at least an hour prior so as to acquaint myself with the venue, visit with the event coordinator or family and also to allow my pipes to acclimate to the temperature & humidity so that they will sound their best when it comes time to perform.

I have been playing the bagpipe professionally since 2006. My repertoire include traditional Scottish & Irish tunes, tunes of faith, Christmas tunes and Patriotic tunes. I have played my pipes for numerous civic organizations including the Downtown Rotary Club in Tulsa, OK, and the Bartlesville Lions Club on several occasions. My proudest moment was when I played my pipes over the graves of Generals Omar Bradley and George C. Scott (Generals of the Army) in Arlington National Cemetery. I have performed in many area churches including Asbury United Methodist Church with their full Orchestra & Choir in a beautiful arrangement of Amazing Grace (2018). I have performed at the First Baptist Church in Rogers, Arkansas on several occasions for their Christmas Cantata (2016 & 2017). A video of the performance is available upon request.

I currently play in two pipe bands in Oklahoma as well as a piping ensemble.

I am a retired highway-heavy contractor and cattle rancher. My wife and I will celebrate 50 years of marriage in March 2019. We are blessed with three adult children and six very special grandchildren. We are both active in our church and keep Christ at the center of our marriage.

If you are looking for a solo piper or an ensemble or mini-pipe band, that can probably be arranged given sufficient time. A mini-pipe band will consist of three pipers, a Scottish snare drummer and a bass drummer. Call or text anytime: 918+650-2021.
