Professional bagpiper for any ocassion. As a third generation player, I've been around bagpipes my whole life. I want to share my love of piping with others, and perhaps you’ll let me share the beauty of the Highland Bagpipe with you.

Memorial for loved one

Made our emotional day very memorable with beautiful music. Spent time leading up to the day reviewing music I wanted played. Arrived on time and he was genuinely concerned with making sure he was meeting my needs for this day. I will add it was outside event, cold and snowing and he pushed through the weather. Very very nice man.

Awesome!

Al the Bagpiper was kind enough to play for my mom who was celebrating her 90th birthday…from beginning to end and everything in between was absolutely wonderful! Everyone attending the party was totally shocked in the best way when Al arrived “out of nowhere” playing his pipes…he entertained us for the next hour…many tears of happiness and wonderful memories of years gone by were shed! As my mom is Scottish, as were many in attendance, you can imagine everyone’s reaction. The wee grandchildren had a great time dancing! Al was kind enough to grant some requests as well as play the classics! Can’t say enough about Al…a gentleman from top to bottom…you will not be disappointed! Will be happy to have him come back any time!

Amazing Grace!!!

I hired Alan for my fathers funeral service. He was great to work with and gave me great suggestions. At the last minute he was easily able to adjust to my slight change in plans. And his music was incredible. It was a terribly cold autumn morning, with all the beautiful colours in the trees and hearing his pipes lead us to my fathers final resting place gave such peace and comfort to our funeral service. My family was so impressed and it was so beneficial for them to be able to end his story with such amazing grace! I am eternally to you Alan. You gave myself and my family soo much more than just your great music.
