"When I called Andy to first enquire about playing at my grandfathers funeral he was very professional, kind and helpful. We arranged for him to play and he was quick to book us in. Me and my family also asked if he new of a drummer to also play alongside him which he did and sorted this all out for us, we were so grateful! On the day of the funeral everything went as planned and Andy did everything we wanted perfectly! He played just beautifully, my grandfather would be extremely proud and would of most definitely cried hearing the beautiful music being played, he was a very proud Scotsman! Thanks again Andy you made our day so special for a wonderful send off for our hero John! (10 / 10) Lauren"

"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."

"David is a Piping Rockstar! I hired David without hearing him, and I must say what a pleasant surprise! He was very easy to work with, very punctual, and very nice. Super easy to work with, and I have reserved him for next year! Hey David...mark your calendar for me."

"Highly recommend Michael Lavelle, Achill Piper. He played for my brother's funeral in Galway. Came from Achill and was at the church to greet us with the beautiful selections. Our friends and relatives from the States were very impressed by his beautiful music and outfit. My brother would be very proud as he loved the pipes. Thank you, Michael. I highly recommend his piping."

"Toni was such a pleasure to work with. Warmest personality from the get go. The team communicated perfectly, responded in a timely manner, and did exactly what was expected- the music they played was beautiful- such a hit! We are still chatting about it. Perfect for leading guests from the ceremony location to cocktail hour and added extra layers in between as they just knew what to do. Professionally performed. V e r y pleased with Brock & Toni-played gorgeously. Will hire them again in a heart beat!"

"My Mum's funeral service had to be shortened to 20 minutes, the attendees were limited, masked and sat apart - I still wanted to make the occasion a celebration of her life, memorable and significant and I'm so thankful for Andrew's involvement - without his impeccable performance and grand appearance there would have been no ceremony or gravitas to proceedings. Everyone commented on how good he was and I know my Mum would have loved how clearly and soulfully he played- the three pieces were all beautiful. Andrew was friendly, helpful and easy to deal with- going out of his way to accommodate my requests, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for any occasion. (10 / 10) Fiona"

"Words cannot describe how delighted my husband and I were to have Andy play such an important role in our wedding day. I had organized to have Andy play as a surprise for my husband, and not only did Andy execute flawlessly, he actually even worked with me to think of important details in planning the surprise! All of our guests were deeply moved by Andy's piping, and everyone was brought to tears (as someone said - "if we weren't crying before the piper we were all crying after he started playing")! We have received lots of lovely feedback from guests about our wedding day, but Andy and his piping stand out as some of the most memorable parts of the day for all. We are so grateful Andy played such an important role in our wedding day! We would recommend - without reservation - having Andy play a role in any celebration you are thinking of planning. Thank you so much, Andy!"

"Dear Stevie, Thank you, from the Family and Friends of Jean Miller. Hearing the bagpipes played on her final journey made an emotional day bearable. You are approachable, kind and very professional, you would have played anything we asked, but leaving the choice of music to you was the right decision and you did a truly amazing job. Thank you again for the phone calls making sure everything was right, to staying at the end to meet the family. Very personal and you looked braw! Best wishes, Family and Friends of Jean Miller."

"We can't thank you enough, Cameron, for helping to make our event special! The surprise element was perfect, and our guests were delighted to see you arrive and watch you play - it all added to the atmosphere! It is so moving to listen to the bagpipes, so to be in the presence of Cameron playing live at our event was a real privilege."
