Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 8, 2025•From Chanhassen, MN

Mike was terrific and so much fun to talk to. He played incredibly well at our event. He was a highlight as many people hadn’t heard bagpipes in person before. He made the grad party more festive and memorable. We will hire him again.

Mike did a great job! We had so much fun with him at our event! The tenants loved him and were impressed at how good he was at bagpiping! We had a great turnout of people who were interested in watching him play. People have been talking about it since and I would book him for any future needs! Thank you Mike!

Mike was fantastic. He stayed longer than booking to accommodate some guests arriving late. Even played some last minute requests which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend him! Thank you

Funeral•Reviewed on October 7, 2024•From King, WI

Our bagpiper, Mike was hired to play at my parents funeral at the VA in King, WI. He traveled all the way from Minnesota for the event. He arrived early, was dressed in traditional bagpipe clothing and was already in place for our procession. His music was truly amazing and made the funeral very meaningful and special. I would highly recommend Mike. I am grateful for his professionalism and kindness.

Funeral•Reviewed on May 19, 2023•From Saint Croix Falls, WI

Mike Breidenbach was a consummate professional and such a talented piper. We were so grateful for the beauty he brought to our loved one's funeral service, in the church and at the internment (and even in a downpour when we were outside!). As the Director of Piping at MacCalester College, we felt so lucky to have someone with that honorary position available for our service.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 29, 2019•From Aldrich, MN

We hired Bagpipes Associates for our father's funeral. We universally agreed that Mike met or exceeded all expectations, not limited to... professionalism, timeliness and performance. His contribution has helped to provide our family closure, in what was an extraordinarily difficult event. I heartedly endorse Bagpipes Associates for any family, group or organizational endeavor.

Memorial Service•Reviewed on October 6, 2019•From Faribault, MN

Very pleased with the selections played and Mike (I'm so sorry. I don't remember your last name) was so easy to talk with and very respectful. Would definitely hire him again.

Funeral•Reviewed on August 12, 2019•From Rogers, MN

Our family has a tradition started by my mother of having bagpipes played at special events. She passed away in July so I knew we had to have bagpipes at her celebration of life. It was a drizzly day so I guess the setting was perfect. I thought I would be fine but when the bag pipes started I burst into tears and so did my uncle. Thank you, Mike, for making her celebration complete.

Mike was on time, professional and communicated well. He confirmed our music requests and played beautifully. The bagpipes were a great addition to our memorial service. Top-notch and I wish I could give more stars.

Mike was absolutley wonderful! He knew exactly what to do for our memorial service. So great to work with, gracious and accommodating. An amazing bagpipe player and musician. He replied instantly to my request and was available on short notice. I couldn't have been more thrilled! And, I am so grateful to him for the amazing gift he gave to the family and friends of our dear Peg. ?
