Welcome to Lone Star Piper! |

I began my bagpiping career as a Fire Department piper. I did this because I felt it was important to honor my firefighting brothers and sisters both in life and death. The sound of the Great Highland Bagpipes, when played correctly, evokes emotions and feelings that most often cannot be expressed by words alone.
Playing the bagpipes for your special occasion will make it one to remember. Let me help you to make your special day or event extraordinary. I am available throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex and the surrounding areas. |

Bagpipes Tradition
 The tradition of bagpipes played at fire department and police department funerals in the United States goes back over one hundred fifty years. When the Irish and Scottish immigrated to this country, they brought many of their traditions with them. One of these was the Great Highland Bagpipe, often played at Celtic weddings, funerals and ceilis (dances).
