Top of the Rock summer evening
Local Missouri Piper since 2015, gladly playing and honoring loved ones' final restings, or celebrating new milestones and marriages. Very personable and honest with a specialty in serving the community. Thank you for considering me! Uilleann pipes will be coming soon for a more intimate setting and playing style.

June 24, 2026Daniel played the traditional bag pipes at my brother’s celebration of life and we couldn’t have been more grateful. He offered to learn a special song request in a short amount of time. Daniel was very flexible, easy-going, professional, and kind. His beautiful bag piping paid homage to my brother in our traditional Irish funeral send off.

December 20, 2024Very professional, great communication, was prompt on time and immensely respectful of the family. I had many people comment to me after about how great Daniel was during the funeral.
I can’t share how much it meant to us having him there. Not only what he played but how he played was truly something I and many others will never forget.

July 2, 2024Daniel filled in for me last minute on a wedding when I had to make a sudden family trip to bury my father-in-law. I reached out to him in particular because I know that he’s a solid piper. And he also carries with him a really good attitude.

June 23, 2024Daniel Zacher provided exactly what we wanted and more. Not an exaggeration to say he may have single-handedly saved a huge part of our wedding. After our original piper was unable to make it to our wedding, Daniel stepped just five days before our big day and DELIVERED! He gave us exactly what we were looking for and so much more. Would recommend him without hesitation -- thank you, Daniel!

(I cannot play Non- Stop for more than 30 minutes but can stay at events for as much time needed - these things take alot of air!!)
I always play fully kilted, and depending on the type of ceremony I have 3 different colored kilts/ tartans to choose from. (Red- Wilson Modern) (Blue- US Navy Modern) (Green- MacMillan Hunting Modern) please let me know what I can do for you!
You will get a very honorable, respectful, and beautiful sounding performance on my bagpipes. The walk off during amazing grace will be extremely emotional and powerful and it will send your loved ones off in a truly one of a kind way.
Weddings will be played with a joyful and happy tune(s) and I offer my bright and cheerful personality to add that little bit of extra spark to your happy and glorious day! Even fishing tournaments early in the morning can be the stage for my past playing (I play many different tunes so please ask if you have a special request!)
40 year old full time firefighter in the Springfield, MO area. I have been blessed to be able to play music from a very young age and starting in 2015 began bagpiping for the fire service. I travel nation wide to fallen military, firefighter, police, and ems services. I am more than happy to assist those wanting services played for their special events, or during the services for lost loved ones and friends. I play bagpipes in Branson 3 to 4 nights a week for Top of the Rock at a beautiful sunset ceremony (March to November).
Honor Bagpiping LLC is composed of just myself as sole performer and owner. As I am still an active full time firefighter please understand, sometimes I am unable to do your event, but always call/text to discuss details. Thank you for your time!!
Uilleann Pipes have been ordered and will arrive early 2026 !! Very excited to be able to offer Uilleann and Highland Bagpiping!!
(Fyi when I say 30 minutes gig time I simply mean I cannot play non stop longer than 30 minutes these things take alot of air!)

Any and all Celtic/irish music. From traditional Black watch pipes and drums band, to dropkick murphys and everything in between.
No equipment needed, typically performed outdoors, if done inside a cathedral type room would be best due to the volume of the instrument.
