My father’s birthday became more special because of Kyle’s exceptional performance. A week later my father is still smiling and his three generations of family are still talking about it. Thank you Kyle.

July 30, 2025A beautiful sendoff for our Mum
Kyle played at our mum's celebration of life. He helped us with a song suggestion and song order, was easy to communicate with and played beautifully. I would recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a bagpiper, and will definitely use him again in the future!
Thank you Kyle for helping make this day perfect.

About
I have over 20 years experience at a world stage. I have competed at the World Pipe Band Championships on several occasions, and have competed as a solo player all over the West coast of North America. I have taught bagpipes for over 10 years, and I play the majority of traditional pieces. I aim to be punctual, adaptable and professional.
If your desired performance time exceeds 20-30 minutes, please discuss the event with me (song requests, environment, etc).
