Chi Tex Irish Bagpipers
Overview
Professional, experienced bagpiper available for all types of events! North Texas, but will travel. I also bagpiped with Red Rebel County, an Irish rock/punk band from Chicago. I previously bagpiped with 3 bagpipe bands. I have additional pipers/drummers available upon request.
I have bagpiped weddings, funerals, memorial services, birthdays, benefits, fundraisers, retirements, promotions, promotional, military send-offs/homecomings, block parties, holidays (Thanksgiving, Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, Flag Day, Christmas, New Year's Eve).
See website for more info & tune list
I'm willing to travel, but there are travel costs involved: gas, my time etc.

November 21, 2016Steve Coyne was the greatest!!
At very short notice I decided my daughter and to-be son-in-law needed a piper for their wedding. I was able to request a quote and book Steve in 1 day and only 2 days before the wedding!! Steve was on time and was able to warm up without giving away his presence so that the surprise was complete. I have heard a few pipers in my day and Steve is VERY good. I highly recommend him for ANY occasion you have planned.
