May 12, 2023It was so easy to book through Gig Salad. With an out of town wedding the planning was not easy but gig salad made booking our Piper a snap! Mike Sortwell showed up in a professional and experienced manner to our daughters wedding! Ready to pipe the newlyweds out of the cathedral! We will definitely use him again if we ever need a highland bagpiper in the Pittsburgh area

July 18, 2022Mike responded and was booked for our family reunion/mini clan gathering within 5 day of the event at a very reasonable rate. I chose him based on other reviews and was not dissapointed. He marched out from behind some shrubs and down the drive to the amazement of all gathered. Everyone including the neighbors were blown away!

March 15, 2022Mike did an amazing job at a funeral service for my husband! The sound of the bagpipes resonated through the cemetary and was a beautiful tribute. Thank you!

August 14, 2021I booked Mike Sortwell to play at my fathers memorial mass this morning and he was perfect! My dad loved listening to the bagpipes. Mike is very professional and communicated to me and our organist to be sure he played what we wanted. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you Mike and appreciate your attention to detail.

June 2, 2021Mike played Amazing Grace to help us honor those who gave their lives for our freedom at our Memorial Day weekend services and he was great. Not only did he play great, but he was great to work with. I highly recommend him!
