Photo of Hampton Pipes & Drums Hampton Pipes & Drums "During the planning of my fathers funeral I realized that I didn't call to book someone to play , in a panic that it was too late I found the Hampton Pipes website. Very shortly after I received a called from Victor. Immediately when is spoke to him I knew he was professional and caring that he was the right person for this special job. He did a great job played all the songs that we discussed and really made the day special. I know my Dad was smiling from heaven. Thank you Victor!" Based in North Bellport, New York, United States (299 miles from Kingston) 30th December 2025 Gina V. - Funeral Photo of Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell Bagpiper: Robert Mitchell "Robert Mitchell was very sensitive to our wish for a softer sound in the church and used the border pipes. He was extremely professional, worked well with the organist and pianist, and provided a lovely Irish touch to my daughter's wedding. Afterwards, he played the bagpipes outside while everyone gathered to greet the new couple with bubbles as they hopped into their limo. In addition, he provided a transition to the reception by playing the bagpipes outside the entrance. We are thankful to Robert and heard many positive comments about him from our guests." Based in Columbia, Maryland, United States (345 miles from Kingston) John G. Photo of Harbour City 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.
