Piper Iain Lang
"Iain was very professional and his performance was excellent. He arrived early, was dressed and unfazed by the rain and wind, and did exactly what I had in mind.
I highly recommend him for anyone looking to hire a bag piper."
Issac, Woods-Hudson, Bagpiping Services
"Issac was amazing!! He played for my father in law's 90th birthday and brought him to tears, happy tears. He took the time to sit and talk to him after and went around to speak to everyone. It was an extraordinary day and we were all super pleased. Everyone loved it. I highly recommend for any event you may have."
Harbour City
"CAMIC had the great pleasure of having Harbour City perform at our annual conference. Not only was the band fantastic, but they played a variety of tunes, from ones themed to the East Coast to familiar tunes from the past. Our guests happily danced until the last set was played"

Harp - Amelia Tokarska

We particularly appreciated how the live performance complemented the event while allowing conversation to flow comfortably. We would happily recommend Amelia for corporate events and private celebrations."
