Utah Bagpiper - Johnny Miner

Johnny played at our father’s funeral. It was a graveside service. Johnny consulted with us a head of time and made excellent suggestions for us to consider. He was very professional and his music was outstanding. Everyone expressed being moved. He was very accommodating to travel and communicates very well. He made the service very special. You will be very pleased with his service. Thanks Johnny!

Johnny added a richness to our funeral that was a perfect way to honor our Irish ☘️ loving dad. We found him at the last minute and he was willing to drive up to play for us. It added so much ambiance to our experience. Thank you!

Johnny was great! He answered my text quickly and was so accommodating at helping me figure out the best things for my grandpas funeral. He was on time, respectful, and super talented. We were very happy with our experience and will be calling him for all our bag piping needs!

No words can describe the over and beyond and extra mile that Johnny went through. He answered the call for a Piper to play at a great Man’s graveside service that originated by me contacting a college buddy that is a Piper… a few emails and facebook posts later Johnny answered the call and drove a round trip a total of 6 hours!!!! All the family continues to talk about is “the Piper”. I have had the honor of hearing and seeing many Pipers and I know they love being known as the “Piper”. So whether it be you or your loved ones funeral, a wedding, a birth or you just want a Piper to walk you from the parking lot to your office desk then Johnny is your PIPER!!!!!

A 5-star piper. I was especially pleased that Johnny played a beautiful, soulful Piebroch piece for our Memorial. The family & guests were enthralled. HIGHLY recommend him!

Johnny was great there's no complaints here he brought tears to a lot of eyes he put real meaning in his music he was great

I was very pleased with the Bagpiper, Johnny Miner. He arrived on time, played the selected songs I requested, and was very compassionate and respectful at the time of my husband's passing. I highly recommend him.

I hired Johnny as a surprise for my mother’s 80th birthday party. It was better than I had hoped. He played several songs, mostly requests. He was so professional and very accommodating. I would not hesitate to contact him again in the future.

I was pleased to have Johnny Miner with us for our 50th anniversary dinner. My wife and I have strong ties to Scotland and it really added to the occasion. His technical performance is superb, and his piper "uniform" is fantastic. HIs repertoire is expansive and his demeanor very pleasant and accommodating.
In this event it was actually fun to "pay the piper."

Johnny was exactly what we needed to send our family hero out the way he would have loved. Beautiful Amazing Grace coordinated with the Honor Guard and at the end of the service wrapped it up with our toast and the Parting Glass. It was truly epic, our family commented that it was sending my brother out with true Power and Grace. Thanks be to Johnny that was a memory I will have forever.

If you can have a highlight of a funeral, Johnny and his bagpipe music were it! Not only was it the most memorable, touching tribute to my father-in-law, Johnny was a pleasure to work with! He was on-time, great at communicating before and after, professional, and talented. I would highly recommend his services!

I had Johnny play at my grandpa’s funeral. In keeping with my grandpas wishes I asked him to play Danny Boy. It was beautiful, and he played it again as he was walking away so it slowly faded away. I can’t recommend him enough, or speak more highly of his skill and professionalism!

Oh my goodness!! Johnny came and played the bagpipes for the opening ceremonies of our huge family Highland Games reunion!! He was AMAZING!! His music was a big hit and a very special highlight!! All of my family loved his music and how he personally played a medley in honor of each family. He was very professional and prompt and so kind to stick around for tons of family group photos!!! I would highly recommend him and we hope to work with him again soon!!!! Thank you Johnny!!!!! 🙏❤️

We could not have been more pleased with our decision in hiring Johnny. He was professional, informative, and flexible especially working with the military part of the service. Johnny helped put our minds at ease. The service was exactly what Dad wanted & then some. The beauty of Johnny playing as we drove up to the graveside brought so much joy & peace to the entire family. His traditional exit was beautiful.

We hired Johnny to play for our graveside service for our mother. He was amazing. The music added so much to the spirit of saying goodbye to mom with joy and celebrating. Bagpipe music really was a special touch and Johnny brought everything. It was an awfully warm day. He joined us in the shade of a huge tree at the cemetery. It was wonderful.

Wonderful musician. Professional, kind. He gave my mother’s memorial just the soulful beauty needed. He was very easy to work with during this stressful time for me. Thank you!

Johnny made certain that the service was extremely meaningful. He took the time to talk about the details and followed up with me on songs and preferences as to his performance. He was not intrusive in the service itself but supported the mood and environment. I would recommend him highly for any event that needs a special touch!

Johnny was absolutely wonderful right from the start. He drove a great distance to assist us. His playing was so beautiful and perfectly timed with everything that was done. I will and would recommend him to everyone. He even was willing to try songs he had never played before! And then made them sound beautiful. Thank you Johnny for helping me fulfill one of her final requests.

The whole experience is one my family will cherish forever. I'm sure we will have him again. From him marching up the street to staying and having cake with us. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Thank you so much

He was great, the music was fantastic . On time. I will use him for more family gettogethers.

Johnny was very personable, timely and helpful. He actually learned and transposed a special song for us that he was unfamiliar with and he nailed it. He is incredibly talented and his bagpipe playing was exceptional. His playing added that memorable experience that we will cherish always. If you need a pipe player, Johnny is your man!

I was so impressed with Johnny. He was just so professional. I am keeping his card for further events.

Johnny was very professional, respectful, and provided beautiful music for my aunts graveside service. Hes an extremely talented piper and great communicator. The music set a beautiful tone for a wee Scottish ladies humble service. Thanks so much.

Johnny Miner was very professional. He contacted me quickly and gave me options of songs that would be perfect for my event. He made sure he got all the details of the event and he followed all the details perfectly. His performance was flawless and really added to our graveside service.

10 out of 10. Provided an amazing experience.

Johnny was great! He was so generous and flexible with his time. He played the most beautiful songs and everyone LOVED it. I'd recommend him to anyone and everyone!

Johnny was so easy to work with. I reached out to him two days before my father's funeral and he didn't even hesitate to help me. He was there early and made my dad's funeral service so beautiful. Such a talent he has and I'm so happy we got to hear it.

Johnny was very helpful in making suggestions. Everyone was very touched by his performance. Great to work with. Will definitely use him again!

We had a really hard graveside service and John came and was incredible. He helped us figure it out, was si flexible, played perfectly, created the atmosphere we needed for healing, was so kind and personable and we all loved him! I will recommend him to anyone who needs a bagpiper!

Johnny was very sweet and considerate at an incredibly difficult time in our lives as we planned for my mother’s unexpected funeral. The music was absolutely beautiful and he knew just when to play and what the play to make it a special and sacred occasion. We appreciated the reasonable cost and flexibility with planning. Would highly recommend for any event.

John played Danny Boy at the service and Amazing Grace at the cemetery as well as music leaving the mortuary and unloading the casket. During a very difficult time he was able to provide a beautiful touch and special memory that I will treasure. Than you!

John Miner played at my sons funeral and it was amazing. The music really created a beautiful atmosphere on a very difficult day. The cost was reasonable and he was early and ready as soon as we arrived. I will definitely recommend his services to friends and family.

Johnny played at my brothers funeral. He was so kind and considerate while organizing the event. He offered song ideas and was so incredibly sweet. He played 3 songs for us and it was such a beautiful touch. It really helped to set the tone of the funeral. It was hot outside and he was dressed in the traditional kilt and had no complaints. He made sure to hang around after the funeral so he could tell me how much of an honor it was to play for my brother. I am so grateful I found Johnny. Thank you so much for your service.

Johnny did a fantastic job. Showed up on time, took the time to give our grandkids a little history lesson. We would use him again.

Johnny did awesome many people said how awesome the bagpipes were and what a great tribute to my dad and our heritage.

Johnny did an excellent job at the graveside service. The bagpipes were beautiful and brought a meaningful and spiritual touch to the day.

Johnny was very professional. His music was perfect for our mother’s funeral.

We hired Johnny for our graveside service at the cemetery and it was beautiful. He was dressed in the traditional wear - so great. His music made the service complete. He played respectful and calming music for a prelude, performed a musical number (Be Still My Soul), and concluded with the postlude. It was freezing outside and he played continuously, which was amazing. It truly made the event terrific and had everyone in tears with how sentimental, spiritual, and beautiful it turned out. I know my uncle was smiling from above. I would rebook Johnny for any future events where I’d like bagpipes played.

We hired John for my sister's graveside. He helped us select the songs and timing, and was patient as we figured out what we wanted. He was early, immaculately dressed, and played beautifully. He helped us say goodbye with dignity and provide the type of burial service my sister wanted.

We're very grateful to have had Johnny play the bagpipes at my father's funeral. He was so gracious and kind and professional. Everyone commented on how amazing it was to have the bagpipes playing at the internment. Thank you, Johnny!

Dear Johnny,
Thank you again for your tender and moving bagpipes playing at my brother’s funeral. You played beautifully and were so very helpful and creative in planning our graveside dedicatory prayer portion. I’ve told my family I want you at my funeral service!

We had Johnny play for us for three hours during our renaissance day festival at University Place. It was sunny, it was hot, but he didn't complain. He played beautifully, interacted with the crowd and was easy to work with when we wanted to adjust things. I would highly recommend Johnny for anyone's event!

Johnny is totally professional and a very fine musician. He was respectful and accommodating. I recommend him most enthusiastically.

Absolutely lovely. Punctual, professional, and looked very sharp in a kilt. Everyone commented afterwards on how his performance was a perfect ending for the service. Also very affordable. Highly recommend.

He was completely professional and performed perfectly. Would recommend to anyone.

He did great!

Johnny played the bagpipes at my mothers graveside service. It made the experience far more special than our family could have imagined. Thank you!

Johnny was eager to fulfill our vision for my mom's birthday celebration!

Miner was easy to work with. He was competent bag pipe player. He dressed the part. Was on time and patient. Days was cloudy and cold and he was outside so he had to keep his instrument warm too so that it played correctly. I would and will hire him again when the time is right.

We hired Johnny for our wedding to play our processional and recessional music. He was a last minute addition to our ceremony and he made it a home run.

He was flexible, worked with us on the music we wanted, Highland Cathedral for the processional, and since it was on May 4th, he was able to play the Star Wars theme song for us on the recessional which was the icing on the cake.

Seeing him lead, and hearing the Pipes played flawlessly while the processional happened put chills down everyone's spine.

Everyone commented on how it was one of the best weddings and the piper was amazing.
