Artist description I am available for weddings, parties, corporate events, funerals and special services throughout the central Texas area. I can also teach lessons if you're interested in learning the pipes. In addition to my experience on the bagpipes, I have over 20 years on guitar and general music theory.

Music Style Scottish Great Highland Bagpipes

Musical Influences Too many to list, but here it's just bagpipes.

Artist History A few years ago, I saw someone warming up a set of pipes. Not even playing anything, just tuning up. I was amazed that so much sound could come from an acoustic instrument. Curious, I searched the web to find out how bagpipes work, and found pages on how to learn. I began teaching myself for a year, and spent the second year as part of a great band: Silver Thistle Pipes and Drums (www.silverthistle.com) where I received expert instruction from Open Grade (professional) piper Kenneth Liechti. Since then I have continued to study bagpipe music and practice daily. I put this netCD together as a way to store recordings in a place where people can listen to them.

Instruments Great Highland Bagpipes. I also play/have played guitar, bass, drums, sax, mountain dulcimer, and a little mandolin -- but not here.
