Review by Julia N.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 17, 2013•From Chapel Hill, NC

We were very happy with the preformance from Mr. Wright. He was on time, professional in his dress and manners, and was delightful. We would recommend him and hope to use him again for another celebration. It was our mother's 75th birthday and we didn't even think to ask if he played "Happy Birthday To You"...and just did it on his own, a very nice touch we all thought. Great guy!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on May 6, 2013•From Louisburg, NC

Mr. Wright did a fine job for us here at Louisburg College. He arrived on time, and played beautifully as he led our students across campus for their commencement. Would certainly have him on campus for another event.

Bruce did a wonderful job at our event honoring a fallen soldier in South Caroline. We will be using him again next time we're in the area.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 20, 2013•From Pittsboro, NC

Bruce showed up precisely at the time he was requested and regaled us with exquisite piping, moving my wife to tears (it was her 70th birthday). Thanks, Bruce, for a most memorable evening!!

Bruce was great for my daughters wedding. On time, looked the part, very accomodating. No one knew he was playing for the recessional and there was definately a WOW factor. Bill C

Celebration•Reviewed on November 13, 2012•From Jacksonville, NC

Mr Bruce Wright and his spouse were very nice and professional. He looked fantastic and sounded wonderful. He showed up on time and was ready to play. However, I thought it was a little pricy ($200) for him to come and play only one 60 sec song. I would have expected a little more playing time and willingness to show off his tallent.

:

I would have been delighted to play more - but was never asked, and everything was so tightly organized I didn't want to do anything that wasn't wanted. Normally unless I'm playing a very long time, I charge a flat fee whether I'm playing for a minute or an hour, plus travel expenses if I have to drive a distance, which was the case for this gig. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your event.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 28, 2012•From South Boston, VA

Bruce wright was professional, talented, and charming. We had a meeting with him before the event and he was extremely knowledgable about traditional bagpipe music. His performance at our wedding was flawless and his rates are very reasonable. If you get him for your event, you won't be disappointed.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 29, 2012•From Greensboro, NC

It suddenly started raining right before our ceremony started and Bruce stood in the rain so he could see us coming and start playing the wedding march when I walked down the aisle. He's very experienced and a lovely bagpipe player. We were so happy we chose him!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 9, 2012•From Wake Forest, NC

Bruce was an amazing bagpiper. I can't recommend him highly enough! All of our guests are still talking about how well and great he played and looked! We did not have a rehearsal and left Bruce open to play what he felt was best and he did not disappoint! I would definitely hire him again! If you need a piper for your event, you have to call Bruce!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 1, 2012•From Raleigh, NC

We wanted bagpipes at our wedding to play in memory of my grandfather, but were on a tight budget. Bruce Wright not only accomodated us pricewise, but was very professional and experienced. He showed up early (where we showed up late, ha!), but was very friendly to us and our wedding party. Our guests very much enjoyed the element he brought to our wedding.

Funeral•Reviewed on April 27, 2012•From Durham, NC

Mr. Wright arrived well ahead of time to scope out the area and to prepare. He played beautifully, walking around the quad outside while people arrived for the funeral. It was very inspiring to hear the sound of the bagpipe as folks arrived. The last song we heard just as we (the pastors and family) were entering the church was "Amazing Grace." Thank you, Mr. Wright, for enhancing this experience of grief and celebration for a life well-lived.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 6, 2012•From Greensboro, NC

Bruce helped to make my Mom's 90th birthday party the hit of Greensboro. I was in China when we set it up over email. We even scheduled his appearance to be a surprise to her.... and a surprise it was. A week later, she and her friends are still talking about it. Bruce played some traditional and special tunes. He made it interesting by even explaining the Scottish connections to some of the songs. Ever heard 'Happy Birthday' sung to 'the pipes'? T'is a lot of fun. Bruce is a professional...plays and instructs with NC State pipers and provides private instruction. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
