I offer bagpiping services for a wide range of events including parties, weddings, and funerals. I know a wide range of songs (Scottish, Irish, Hymns, Modern, etc), and I will play what you request or whatever is desired to fit the mood. Book me today to have bagpipes at your next event.
Didn't have much time to plan everything out. I found a website to find a Bagpiper and Evan came to the rescue last minute. Even with the crazy raining weather he made it perfect and played through it. My family was very emotional and we were so very grateful for his playing. Highly recommend!

WM highland bagpiper was prompt and reliable . Made sure he got in contact with me to confirm plan, times, & songs. He did a great job at the surprise bon-voyage party for my niece. He even warmed up in a nearby park as to not spoil the surprise for for her. Thanks Evan you were a pleasure to work with!
We asked Evan to play at my mom’s repass which was at a restaurant. He was very responsive to our song requests and we had a number of exchanges fine tuning the playlist. Evan also plays the flute which was a great addition. He was easy to work with and played beautifully- and was a highlight of the day. Many said as soon as they heard him playing, they started to cry- it was very moving. I would highly recommend Evan for any event.

Had a wonderful experience with Evan! He was incredibly responsive - more than any others I reached out to. He asked in advance which songs we’d like played and made our dad’s 60th birthday surprise one to remember!!

I am an active bagpiper currently serving as the Pipe Corporal for the West Milford Pipes and Drums. I am available as a solo piper or small band upon request. I provide music for various events such as weddings, funerals, and parties. I will be punctual, dressed appropriately for the event with a fine-tuned instrument making your event as special as possible. I'm an experienced bagpiper with a deep passion for both traditional Irish and Scottish hymns, as well as modern tunes. I'm always eager to add new songs to my library. I am happy to learn any special request song(s) you would like played for your event. I pride myself in being very responsive and easy to work with.
Some influences of my playing are the Scottish and Irish styles of music. I play many of my tunes in a Scottish or Irish style respectfully.
