Overview

I am a bagpiper originally from Edmonton, Alberta who is looking to add a Scottish flair to your event on Vancouver Island! I have been performing at weddings, funerals, parties and other events for over 10 years, and would love to play for you.

I have a very wide repertoire of music and will likely know any commonly heard bagpipe tunes. However, I can learn new music quickly if needed and will be glad to do so for your event. If it can be played on the bagpipes, I would be happy to arrange and learn it. I am also a past member of the world-champion Simon Fraser University Pipe Band and have competed in Scotland many times, both as a solo piper and in bands.

Sandy was absolutely amazing!

We absolutely loved Sandy at our hobbit/carnival wedding. He played my entrance, our exit, and played some tunes at the end, and even joined in with our fiddle band, and participated in our bubble gum bubble contest. He was skillfully and amazingly, an all around amazing guy. He made our wedding special and we were honored to have him be there!

Sandy was fabulous!

Sandy was a great addition to our family’s celebration honouring my father’s life. He was on time, respectful, easy going, responsive, and had a wide repertoire. His playing was fabulous. I can heartily recommend him!

Thrilling addition to family event

I engaged Sandy Adams for the birthday party of
a beloved friend who loves all things Scottish.
Sandy was a professional in all respects, fulfilling
all my requests. In addition, his easy manner and
sense of humour endeared him to everyone present.
Highly recommended.
