"On the 3rd of May we had him play at our wedding as a surprise for my wife as her family are Scottish. I can honestly say he made everyone's night. Everyone after was, and still is raving about how good he was. Everyone was up dancing ! We wished we'd had him the whole night. Fantastic price. Lovely bloke. Couldn't recommend him enough. If you want a piper, choose him he's amazing you wont be sorry."

"I would also like to take the opportunity to thank you again for the beautiful pipe music that you had played at my fathers funeral. Your suggestions were perfect and very fitting as all my family commented on your musical abilities. I'm sure ,if my father was here and herd you play he to would be very proud. Maybe next time when I need a piper it could be for something happy like my partners and I's wedding. Thank you again. I also understand the the funeral director is also a piper and plays in your group, I would be very grateful if you could thank him also for the respect and decency he had shown not only to my late father but also my family. In today's world, I found it very refreshing to have meet two nice people that I feel went above and beyond their duties, there was definitely an air of highland spirit. "
