Darrell was wonderful. We hired him to perform Amazing Grace for my dad's memorial service and it was a beautiful performance. He was very professional and easy to communicate with. Thank you for a great job!

Darrell was amazing! He reached out to me prior to booking and educated me on how things work at a National cemetery. He played beautifully and was very knowledge of procedures and venue. Thank you Darrell!

Very happy with him. He communicated before the event to finalize all the details, came on time in full regalia, played all the songs I asked for, and even chatted with our party about bagpipe history.

Darrell was superb! He was very professional and tailored his bagpipe playing to our specific requests for the service. It was the perfect way to conduct our committal service, and many attendees commented on how special Darrell was. Highly recommended!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 26, 2023•From Sherman Oaks, CA

I hired Darrell almost a month before my Dad’s 80th, and I am soooo glad I got him before anyone else could scoop him up. He was more than accommodating to my musical requests and catered the playlist to my dad’s West Point, Vietnam War Veteran history. He had the brilliant suggestion to add a drummer (but did not pressure) to enhance the military musical flavor, and Malcolm was perfect! They entered the Robin Hood British Pub in Sherman Oaks playing “The Army Goes Rolling Along” and had the entire pub joining in the celebration. Dad was in tears, and the entire event was a tremendous success! Thank you doesn’t cover it, Darrell. You and Malcolm are the best!!!

Funeral•Reviewed on October 24, 2023•From San Diego, CA

Darrell was so sincerely helpful with all aspects of planning a (Veteran) National Cemetery Committal Service, not just his beautiful and to perfection bagpipper music. His presence, his music, was a beautiful part of our ceremony and service as we honored our Dad and lay him to rest. I highly recommend Darrell.
