Review by Matthew J.

Funeral•Reviewed on June 21, 2026•From Old Bridge, NJ

Bill was amazing, showed up 15 minutes early and was able to play the songs we requested for my Fathers memorial, it was a hot and very sunny day but he stood in the sun and played for all of us. His playing was beautiful and he is obviously extremely talented. Thank you Bill, hearing Flower of Scotland played for my Dad was the perfect goodbye.

:

Thanks Michelle and Matt, for the opportunity to share the music and for your kind words. All the best to you.

Bill was amazing as he played for our event. This was for a Tartan Day parade in NYC. Bill was easy to communicate with, was punctual, looked amazing and played so well! Our university hired him through this site and we were very happy with everything. See you next year Bill!

Thanks Leanne! Such a fun day & great meeting you and your fellow alumni. I hope to see you all again next year!

This is our second year of working with Bill for our Corporate Veterans Day event. Bill is a great bagpiper, and struck the right sounds at the right moments. He also worked very well with our team organizing the event, and equally as well with the color guard unit. Highly recommend Bill for any event you are planning... a good person and a talented musician.

Thanks Nick! Always great to work with you and your colleagues.

Funeral•Reviewed on August 7, 2025•From Lakewood, NJ

Bill’s performance at my father’s funeral was to perfection. I first choose Bill based not just on reviews, but also he looked like a gentleman my father would have had as a friend. The music was appropriate beautifully played. Could not have been happier about my decision to have chosen him. Thank you Bill.

I'm flattered by your kind words, Chris. All the best to you and your family.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 18, 2024•From Clark, NJ

Great job by Bill in responsiveness, talent, accommodating our needs and his overall demeanor. He also did me a huge favor. We have an annual veterans event that we run annually to honor our veterans at our company welcome veterans and caregivers from the Paralyzed Veterans of America that we serve with a day of beauty(I work for L'Oreal). Our longtime Marine Color Guard, cancelled at the last minute so we had to pivot quickly and Bill did me a huge favor and got a couple of his friends from the VFW to come and present the colors for us. Thanks Bill for everything!! highly recommend Bill.

:

Thanks Nick! It was an honor to perform for L'Oreal's Veterans Day event.

Review by Sheila G.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 1, 2024•From South River, NJ

Bill was absolutely perfect. He was at the cemetery when we arrived from the funeral home. I walked up to him to introduce myself, and I shook hands with the most kind gentleman, dressed exactly as in his picture. I hired Mr. McEvoy on line from my home in Georgia for my dear younger brothers burial,in New Jersey. Easy to do. Highly recommend Bill McEvoy for any of your special events.

:

Thanks Sheila. All the best to you and your family.
