He was helpful with the song selection by suggesting a very fitting tune, which we included in the ceremony. Jeremy was prompt, easy to work with, and knew the timing of such events, so coordinating the music was easy. The overall experience was excellent.

Five stars for Jeremy Shilley in all categories is not an exaggeration. Jeremy's professionalism set the tone for our event as he arrived in full regalia. Our party guests were treated to outstanding playing of the pipes! Jeremy demonstrated a warmth and generosity with his music and shared with us a deep knowledge and passion for his instrument. As well as playing the bagpipes for us, we had asked that he talk about their history, construction and function. He did it all, far exceeding expectations. My Son-In-Law said, "He was able to answer all my questions!" Jeremy Shilley is worth every one of the five stars. Thank you Jeremy for a WONDERFUL performance.

Jeremy is the most professional and kind person. He went above and beyond to make our event over the top. Perfect fit for our Scottish wedding. He has excellent communication, punctuality, and talent. Far beyond any expectation. We extremely recommend him and plan to use his services as a permanent fixture for our clan events. Truly beyond A+ performance on all scales.

Jeremy did SUCH a good job. When you are organizing a large event such as ours (Memorial, celebration of life, military ceremony) it's nice to have all the performers in line and on cue. Jeremy was faultless. He played absolutely beautifully and slipped seamlessly into the sequence of events. He was also fun to talk with. We enjoyed having him and would absolutely recommend his services to anyone needing a talented and experienced piper. Heather Campbell

Knowing that Jeremy Shilley had a 3 hour drive with heavy traffic to get to the event, it could have been stressful, but he arrived early and played beautifully. I would recommend him anytime.

Jeremy arrived on time, was dressed in the traditional Scottish attire - kilt, etc. His manner was courteous and professional, and his music great. He played for the allotted time and brought many kind comments from attendees.

Mr. Shilley was so professional, especially at our Marine's funeral. He was at the ceremony site on time and found the perfect site on the hill, to play Amazing Grace at the end of the service. He also played longer after the service, while people mingled and were consoling one another. I would recommend him for anyone needing a piper for a military funeral or even civilian funeral. Thank you so very much for sharing your gift Jeremy. Best, Cynthia

Jeremy did an amazing job from the initial response time, assisting with keeping his performance a surprise during the wedding and coming up with the perfect music that was traditional yet graceful for a wedding ceremony. He had a fantastic attitude despite having to sit in hours of traffic and didn't seem rattled at all. I was beyond pleased with everything and would definitely recommend him!!
Memorial Service•Reviewed on April 11, 2015•From Edmonds, WA
I found that my grandmother wanted bagpipes at her memorial only a few weeks before the scheduled event, and no one in my family knew anything about how to select a piper or the songs that would be best. In addition, I live in Southern California and the event was to take place in the Seattle area. Once I came in contact with Jeremy, he was able to help recommend songs to me via e-mail and we had great communication this way until the event. He was punctual, professional, flexible and kind. We were all delighted with his performance of our song choices. He put the magic into our memorial for our beloved grandmother. I give him my highest recommendation.

Jeremy drove a long way to my house, was early and very concerned that he play what I wanted, the way that I wanted. His music was the high point of my Burns Supper, and everyone raved about him. He was very careful to position himself where people would enjoy his playing most, even in a small space, and then made sure he was an amazing enhancement to the festivities. Highly recommend him, and will be using him again next year. Five stars
