Well, we got snow. Lots of it! That means we're all hunkered down doing jobs to make the days ahead better. Learning new tunes, checking things off lists - it is all part of the journey. Wish you well and stay warm!

A big job for the band underway today with a dedicated crew of technicians...the new band book! A labour of love and gracenotes. New book for the new year.

Ottawa Irish Arts invited us to be part of their special celebrations, and what an honour it is - we have been working on some great Irish music for the event as well as some Scottish standards. We hope you can come down to St. Brigid's on November 16 - we play at 3:30 pm.

Our band does some cool events. This one was at the Stirling Distillery during our trip to Scotland. This is one great place to visit - be sure and put it on your itinerary if you're heading that way! https://t.co/QZLu1MMZUi

Our terrific drummer Caelan is off to join the Air Force, so he will be away for a bit. We wish him well and look forward to seeing him again!

Some of our bandmembers from Ottawa are meeting with other pipers and drummers from all over the world, and competing at the World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow next weekend. They'll also play in 5 concerts and have a marvellous time. Proud!

A great book that covers so much of the history of the College of Piping in Glasgow, Scotland. Honored we had a mention in it by our friend Jeannie Campbell. She graced our circle with her terrific talents and continues to contribute so much to Scottish history worldwide.
