Hello, I'm Alastair the Alberta Bagpiper. I'm a professional bagpiper located in Edmonton but I am available for performances across Alberta. If you want to get the attention of your audience, there's nothing like the sound of the pipes! Typical events are: weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, funerals/celebration of life, corporate events, convocations, golf tournaments, curling bonspiels, head tables, VIP and dignitary entrances and many more. I look forward to hearing from you and performing for your upcoming event! - AB

Typically I don’t need anything if I’m playing my Great Highland Bagpipes unless the event would like to mic me using a special pic up mic.
Most information I can find out on the day of the event.
I typically do not do this as it isn’t needed for my performances but if a client would like me too, I could provide what is needed at a cost to the client.
N/A
Recently I had the opportunity to perform with Edmonton Symphony Orchestra at the Winspear Centre and that has definitely a highlight for me.
I love playing at weddings, seeing everyone so happy and celebrating love is always exciting but I also really enjoy performing anywhere. It’s my passion and something I’m really talented at and enjoy spreading that to my clients and their guests.
I started performing for people at a young age and it’s always something I’ve enjoyed doing. Doing it professionally now is what I’ve always wanted to do and seeing it come to fruition is very special for me.
There are way too many to list and in multiple genres of music. Music is the international language of all humanity.
Typically I arrive about half an hour prior to my performance time to get situated, see the lay of the land and warm up / tune my instrument so that I’m ready to perform when called upon.
I am happy to perform both outside and indoors and am comfortable playing in all weather conditions.
I am happy to field requests as I am quite versed in multiple genres of music. Mostly traditional Scottish music but I do like to play some contemporary as well.
Exceptional. Excellent. Talented. Remarkable. Top Shelf.
Yes, I do. I have a digital set up that I can use in bars and hook up to through a PA system and blow the roof off of the place.
