Communication was great. Thom made a grand entrance at a surprise bday party for a very irish 75 year old. It was the highlight of the event. Such a great experience and I can’t recommend Thom more!!

November 27, 2025Thom Moore, The Happy Bagpiper is Fantastic!
Thom was absolutely fantastic! We used his services for my husbands funeral service. We could not have been more pleased with how well he plays and how well he seamlessly melded into the day. He is a true pro!

April 22, 2024Prompt and Professional
We cannot recommend Thom enough! From the ease of reserving his services through our wedding day, Thom was very professional and thorough. Before the ceremony, Thom ensured all details were discussed and addressed, and also made great suggestions to make our day special and memorable.

October 7, 2026Surprise for my Husband
I hired Thom to play the bagpipes at my wedding as a surprise for my now husband, who is from Scotland. I could not have been more pleased! He was personable, professional and made great suggestions when helping me plan for the ceremony. My dad walked me down the aisle to Thom playing “Highland Cathedral, as he walked in full regalia behind us playing beautifully, and it could not have been a more perfect moment! I would highly, highly recommend him to play for any special event. My wedding guests are still talking about how impactful Thom’s presence was and how beautifully he played!

May 3, 2026Thom did a fabulous job for us on a very special occasion!
Thom was extremely professional and his music was a hit! He even learned two new tunes (the Brown Alma Mater and an original called Grandad Academy). The crowd loved it!

A certified, successful grade 1 solo competitor (grade 5 being the lowest and 1 the highest), and former member of more than a dozen competition-level pipe bands in grades 3 and 2. A sought-after, accomplished bagpiping instructor for individuals and bands, currently instructing (1) the Camden County (NJ) Emerald Society Pipes & Drums, (2) the Philadelphia Police and Firefighters Pipes & Drums, and (3) the New Castle County (DE) Police & Firefighters Pipes and Drums bands.

I am proud to play this great instrument, and look forward to making your special event truly memorable, whether it is a funeral or memorial service for a loved one, a wedding, party, a corporate event or promotional activity, or some other remembrance or celebration. I always take special care in how I present myself, tailoring my appearance, uniform, and repertoire to the circumstances and style of your event. I am extremely well versed in Irish, Scottish, and other Celtic musical selections, and love to work directly with clients to tailor my performance to their particular needs and interests.
One of my heartfelt goals as a highly experienced, well-trained, and certifiably accomplished bagpiper is to educate folks about how truly amazing the bagpipe can sound. This is my essential mission. Sadly, even many people with professional training on other instruments often have only a vague idea of how a bagpipe really should sound and how it should be played. This is why I'm always ready to provide advice and help to bagpipe students and even other experienced pipers who may not have had the benefit of top-notch teachers and consistent training. The bagpipe is surely one of the noblest of all musical instruments, and whenever I play it, I am keenly aware of the great social and cultural Celtic heritage that it represents. I will continue to do my part to represent the instrument appropriately, with dignity and honor, as well as, of course, some good fun!
