Overview

Celtic music for all occasions. From pub style sing-alongs to stately bagpipes, perfect for weddings, funerals, ceremonies of any kind and any time you want a touch of Irish or Scottish music.

Wireless Electronic bagpipes (they come with a volume knob) with excellent sound sampling, look and sound completely acoustic. The reverb and chorus settings will make you believe a piper is off in the glen, playing in the mist.

Accordion and vocals - I am a trained singer with years of experience touring nationally with a Celtic band. Song styles go from fun up-tempo Irish and Scottish songs to love songs and ballads.

Drummer available as well.

Such a Hit in Murphy, NC!

Glen is top-notch! He put on an amazing show during the America 250 Heritage Festival and sounded amazing over fireworks. He was very professional and we will be inviting him back to our area for sure!!!

It was great! Very pleased!!!!

Very pleased… gentleman was on time and polite and just jumped right in … I did change a bit of what he was doing which involved him bring his gear inside and playing one more song… and he said “not a problem I’ll take care of it”. Would highly recommend!!

Glenglass was amazing! We throughly enjoyed our event. He and his wife participated, her drums were a very nice accompaniment to his piping. The Amazing Grace rendition was spectacular.

Really great!

We called upon David to play for our Corporate even intro and asked him to play some intense Braveheart music. Hi electric bagpipes were perfect for what we requested. Thanks David for making our event great!

What to expect

I arrive early, setup the sound system, and then get changed into my full kilt and gear. The pipes look and sound acoustic, though they are electronic. This gives me the advantage of setting the volume for the space so that the pipes are stirring and meaningful, without being overpowering. It also ensures that the pipes are always perfectly in tune, something that cannot be said for acoustic pipes. I also play Scottish whistle. Similar to a flute, the Scottish whistle is a lovely, evocative instrument that can set a solemn mood, or be a lovely background.

About

Having toured for a dozen years with the Celtic Rock band, Coyote Run as the lead singer/accordion/bagpiper, David and his wife have settled in the Tampa Bay area. During his years of touring, David's band was featured at various Celtic festivals around the country, including: Grandfather Mountain Highland Games, The Great American Irish Festival, Toledo Irish Festival, Potomac Celtic Festival, Williamsburg Scottish Festival, Savannah Highland Games, Syracuse Irish Festival, and many more. Coyote Run toured and performed throughout the United States, Canada and made multiple special appearances in Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales. They released 11 CDs. David's wife was the drummer for Coyote Run, and now plays for the American Rogues.

Additional booking notes

I provide speaker(s), mixer, microphone (if needed) and appropriate cables. I ask that clients keep in mind that I will need space and set up time for the speakers and gear. Clients would be responsible for lights.
