Review Centre: Bagpipers

"Thank YOU for both your prowess (in piping skills) and your professionalism in attending to every request we and our guests made. You showed up with such warmth and authenticity at both events and hand on heart, added to making my birthday party an extraordinary one for me and for every guest too. I am (gratefully) inundated by the sheer volume of comments and thanks from everyone who attended. You did Scotland and bagpiping proud."

"Johnny helped my family and I to remember my brother-in-law that died unexpectedly at his graveside service the day before Thanksgiving. He made himself available for any questions/needs prior to the day. Even took a late request on the day and made the service meaningful for those attending. He arrived half an hour early and on time (as he said he would). Took time to familiarize himself with where he was going to play. The weather, unfortunately turned unexpectedly cold however, that did not deter him. He showed his professionalism and respect for the moment at hand and played. The songs were played with love and passion and were simply beautiful. He is a true gentleman and a Scotsman at heart. I am deeply grateful for what he did and I highly recommend Johnny and his services. He even took time after all was done to let the kids enjoy a lesson in bagpiping."

"We have worked with Spud for many years. His playing gives great comfort to our families during their time of sadness. He takes great pride in his work and he is always very reliable. We think very highly of Spud at John Ross Funeral Services. "

"Andrew was fantastic from our first phone conversation he basically arranged everything,all we had to do is pick the songs and what colour tartan. The day after my dads funeral my mum was receiving lots of phone calls to say how sad and wonderful the day was,and Andrew got a big mention in most of them conversations."

"Thank you for coming along to Lauren's birthday bash in Ludlow and welcoming all the family with your playing. It was a lovely surprise for her and all the others, to be greeted by the sound of the bagpipes and a well-dressed piper. With the compact acoustics of the venue, playing just two pieces was perfect. The little girl of six, who is sensitive to any kind of loud sound, also enjoyed seeing a piper welcoming everyone. Knowing that you do travel, I will certainly be very happy to recommend you to anyone looking for a musician to entertain at an event. I hope our paths will cross again. With Very Best Wishes, Len"

"My fiancé and I hired Hampton Pipes & Drums for our wedding this past weekend. Victor was incredible!!! He came and played at the church while guests entered and as everyone was leaving - it was raining a bit, but you would never know, Victor did a tremendous job! He then came to the venue with a gentlemen by the name of Tom who played the snare drum. They played for a bit during our cocktail hour and were so terrific, everyone loved them and they added the perfect touch to our day!! I would recommend Victor to friends and family and will keep him in mind for any future event!"

"John was a wonderful addition to our graveside service. It was not just about someone showing up to play the bagpipes. The way he plays & presents himself, from start to finish, is worth every penny! It was truly a special moment for such a tuff day."

"A huge thank you to Jason. I was on holiday staying on the shores of Little Loch Broom with some friends. I've always loved the Highlands and wanted my friends to experience listening to the pipes in this wonderful setting. Jason was lovely. He turned up in time but unfortunately the midgies were horrendous that evening. So, after I suggested we move up the hill to the viewpoint with spectacular panoramic views Jason was more than happy to accommodate. As it happens the event was absolutely perfect. The music, the piper himself and the scenery was spectacular. Thank you Jason. You were amazing "

"Andy made our wedding anniversary celebration a very special day indeed. We were very moved hearing him play Highland Cathedral so beautifully as we had this at our wedding twenty two years ago. He communicated very well as soon as I made the booking and was very punctual. He looked incredibly smart and dapper and he played the bagpipe absolutely beautifully. It was just perfect. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to find another excuse to book him again."

"Toni and her husband were able to come out on short notice and provide and amazing tribute, followed by and Irish toast for the unfortunate passing of my nephew. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to attend services, but was there in spirit and via FaceTime. I had a lengthy conversation with Toni beforehand, where she was more than accommodating!! She went above and beyond, and connected with me on a whole new level in my time of need. She fully understood the gravity of the situation, and didn’t hesitate in pulling out all the stops with her husband and team member!! They played beautifully and looked great in their kilts!! All while posing for pictures with the kids, and generally bringing everyone together. What an amazing send off, and celebration of life for my nephew!! Thank you so much Toni, I would most definitely utilize your services time and time again. You guys did an amazing job!! You really had an impact on everyone’s day while simultaneously… almost effortlessly, providing an amazing performance!! Thank you so much!! 10/10 highly recommend!!😎"
