JOIN US
We’re always on the lookout for players. Our motto is “play good music and have a laugh” which means it’s as much about the banter as perfecting our skills on the chanter. We maintain a high musical standard by competing locally, nationally and internationally at G4A level. We have consistently won the WA State Championships and other contests for over 2 decades and came second at the 2019 South East Asian Championships in Singapore. The band has lots of fun bagpiping in Perth, where we play at major events and celebrations. We also regularly tour rural Western Australia, playing at agricultural shows. And we regularly travel to Jakarta, Indonesia, for the St Andrews Ball. Contact our secretary for more information, and we look forward to welcoming you to our band practice on Monday nights.

PHOTO GALLERY
We love playing and have a great time wherever we go. Below are some shots from recent gigs. See more photos on our Flikr Gallery, our Instagram, or our Facebook page.
WHAT WE DO
STREET PARADES
There’s nothing like a pipe band to get everyone in step. We lead the ANZAC march in Pinjarra each year and play the Channel 7 Christmas Pageant, St Patricks parades, country show street marches and other processions.
Fairs & Country Shows
We love a bus trip to the country and are happy to stay overnight. We perform at agricultural shows, B&S Balls, and bush races. Typically, we lead a parade and then provide music throughout the day.
Weddings
Add some atmosphere to your wedding with a full pipe band, a mini band or a solo piper. We perform at lots of weddings and make a great backdrop for your bride and groom photos!
Concerts
We have experience playing with rock bands, orchestras and folk groups. We can also bring our own backing tracks to stage a concert performance, and can include highland dancers in our program.
Solo piping
Our band includes champion solo pipers, who are always available for engagements such as funerals, weddings, birthdays and other events. Contact us for a quote.
Competitions
We keep our playing standard very high by competiting in local, national and international pipe band contests. Check our calendar of events to see our next competition or see us perform on our YouTube channel.
