"Johnny was exactly what we wanted. We wanted a bagpiper to play at my mother’s graveside service. He was punctual, respectful, great at communicating, asking & honoring our specific song request and also giving great recommendations for others. And his abilities were perfect. Everyone was in awe. He made the service more special. Thank you!"

"David played at my 30th birthday and put on a great performance! Everyone wanted to know his details after. He’s easy to work with and will get to know your music taste. I recommend him for any events you have. "

Their bagpipe performance brought a special energy that pulled the community together and added a beautiful cultural touch. They truly made our event ten times better. They were a complete joy to work with and I can’t recommend them enough! -CB"

"Johnny exceeded expectations at my father’s celebration of life. It was a low-key backyard event and he was responsive, helpful and genuine during all of our conversations to figure it out. Everyone loved his performance and friendly energy. It made the celebration extra special. Highly recommend for all types of events!"

"Johnny played at my father’s graveside funeral and did a really phenomenal job. He was extremely professional and communication was excellent. He tailored the songs to exactly what we were looking for and his bagpipe music set a beautiful tone for the service. I couldn’t be happier. Don’t hesitate if you’re looking for bagpipe music for your event."

"Brock and Toni were absolutely wonderful. Our wedding guests arrived to the heart warming sounds of Brock and Toni playing an amazing Wedding Tune! It was deeply moving and spirit felt by all. Toni's welcoming smile and gentle calming spirit was present on the phone, texts and day of. She helped out on so many levels! What a great way to set the tone for our daughter's wedding. The professionalism, talent and fun personalities of this couple will never be forgotten. We were truly blessed to have found them, and I recommend them wholeheartedly and without reservation.

"John is the best bagpipe player ever! He came to my granddaughter’s elementary school in his kilt with his bagpipe and totally entertained them as well as educated them on the basics of the bagpipes. He even played Happy Birthday on the bagpipe’s to a birthday boy in the class! He played Christmas Carols as well as traditional Scottish songs. The 96 kids loved every minute of it as well as the teachers. I would highly recommend him for any event!!"

"Bob Ferguson concert, 11. Sept. 2019 Our association organizes, among other things, traditional concerts, especially regional music of Low German culture. Scottish and Celtic music corresponds to this program much. Bob Ferguson gave us with his music insights and impressions into the everyday life of Scottish life. In his ballads, he sang about love, wanderlust, the landscape and the sea. He entertained the audience wonderfully, walked through the rows of spectators and encouraged everyone to sing along. The audience felt transported to the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland and had this beautiful landscape in mind. We thank him for this great concert and we look forward to seeing him again in autumn 2020. "

"We had Trio come perform at our wedding Day 2 in Cavan, and it was truly one of the best decisions of our wedding planning. They had all of our guests signing along and dancing to their music in the pub. The set list was absolutely incredible and they even performed an encore because our guests weren’t ready for them to leave! The lads were also absolute gentleman to work with when booking them, super responsive and flexible with our venue changing during the process. We would hire the Trio again in a heartbeat, and cannot recommend them enough. Thanks!"

"Jason is incredible! From performance, to accommodation, personality, etc. I believe that he is the MOST perfect person we could have picked for our ceremony. I wanted to secretly hire a piper for my wife and I's wedding ceremony in the Scottish Highlands. Working with Jason, he was able to travel, accommodate to our needs and communicate with me to arrange everything to be as smooth as possible with 0 bumps in the road. Jason became a very special part of our day and is someone we still continue to talk about even after our ceremony. He has an incredible history, is an overall incredible person to spend some time with and is very talented - being open to answer any and all questions, comments, etc. Thank you so much again Jason for everything and we hope to see you again next time we visit Scotland"

"Cats Claw stood out in the promo presentations. We started out with high anticipation.... we ended with expectations exceeded! All-round 5 stars for the practical, professional, and logistical stuff. 6+ stars for personality and friendliness:) 10 stars for the reciprocal engagement with the floor and the mood. I've worked at festival stages with ceilidh bands (I booked CC for this wedding) and CC are a group that just kept giving. Be clear about your needs and they will meet them. The feedback and accolades from the wedding couple and guests were great... and also some neighbours who listened in! Job done... thanks Cats Claw. "

"Johnny played at my father’s funeral. I remembered years ago it was one of the things my dad wanted at his funeral and Johnny did an amazing job. We have had people message us saying how cool and unique it made the funeral! For my dads request of having a bagpipe player at the funeral he definitely had an amazing performance that I know made my dad proud and made it a even more memorable experience/celebration of life for everyone!"
