“Cameron – just a quick thank you for your superb piping at Kibworth today. It was an amazing surprise for Steve – he was in tears of emotion as you played, and he is not a man driven to tears easily. Hope you got home safely and that we can hear your piping again some time in the not too distant future. Best wishes”

“Cameron helped us with a studio recording and he was brilliant. He is such a nice guy and I told him that if anything comes from the recording he would be considered as an official member of the band and would invite him to perform it live with us. Thank you once again”

“I will never be able to thank you enough for playing at my wedding and making the day so complete. My new wife was so emotional as was I when you led her into our wedding service. I appreciated the tailored service you helped me with and the additional advice and help with my highland wear. I will always recommend you to anyone needing your services. Memories are special and I will always cherish my wedding memories, especially my piper”
“I wanted to thank you so much for yesterday. Everyone commented on how beautiful your playing was. It was exactly what Dad would have wanted and was greatly appreciated by all. Fabulous. Thank you so much”
“A belated big thank you for playing so wonderfully at our wedding in Ripley. Whilst I didn’t get to hear you play as much as I would have liked, due to bridal duties, there have been so many people complimenting you in the letters we have received since the wedding. A New Year’s Eve that we will never forget”
