👏

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 'No Scotland, No Party'

Scotland are back on the World Cup stage, the Tartan Army are in full voice, and naturally someone has committed the chant to paper.

Possibly the most important pipe band score of the tournament.

Play it with conviction. Repeat as required. Extra marks for volume.

✨Highland Games season is here, so consider this our salute to every piper, drummer, soloist, and band heading out for 2026.

May your drones be steady, your reeds be friendly, and your tunes be well remembered.

Whether you’re competing solo or with your band, we wish you a season of great music, good results, and even better memories.

All the best from Dunbar Bagpipes.

⭐ North Stratton Pipe Band recently debuted their new competitive medley at the 2026 Ogden Indoor Highland Games in Calgary, Alberta — and among the players is Jeff Pettigrew, son of Rick Pettigrew and Jacquie Dunbar.

North Stratton does not play Dunbar pipes, but we’re always proud to see the Dunbar family connection represented in excellent piping at a high level.

This is a very strong Grade 2 band making serious waves. Well worth a listen — let us know what you think.

♫ A month ago we posted about spring waking the pipes back up. Now that a few more players have had them outside again, the little things are probably starting to show themselves.

A reed that feels different. Drones that need a bit of attention. A joint that needs h**p. A set that was steady indoors but behaves differently in the open air.

That’s usually how the season begins.

With Games season getting closer, now is a good time to give your pipes a proper once-over and get everything settled before the busy months ahead.

How are your pipes feeling so far?

The weather softens, the bands start tuning up again, solo players head back outside, and before long Highland Games season is on the horizon.

What part of the season are you most looking forward to?
- First outdoor practice?
- Getting your pipes steady again?
- The first competition?
- Or just playing in the open air after a long winter?
