What made you learn?

“The Boys Brigade was a large part of the community in the town Glen grew up in. This meant he was always surrounded by pipers from a very young age. Glen joined the Boys Brigade at 8 years old and commenced learning the bagpipes imminently. Since then, Glen has never looked back”

Testimonials

“I hired Glen to play at my daughter’s wedding in April, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with him. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone”
“Glen helped make our wedding a special day. We booked Glen over a year in advance and his professionalism was instant. Glen’s repertoire of traditional pipe music is vast. He knew all of the songs we wanted and worked really well with our schedule, knowing when to play a particular song that was special to us (including Star Wars). What was even better for us was just how friendly Glen is. Thank you Glen”
“We booked Glen for a joint 60th birthday dinner and was not disappointed. His communications prior to the event was perfect, and his punctual arrival eliminated any birthday nerves. Glen performed a good variety of music and everyone was very impressed with his skillful playing. In fact, one of our guests, who examines all over the world, said that Glen was the best he had ever heard. We would not hesitate to recommend Glen to others. He was amazing, thank you”
