Saint Patrick's Day Party•Reviewed on March 20, 2026•From Irvine, CA

We had the best time with Dave! Such a nice guy and great musician. He played his bagpipes for quite awhile and our guests absolutely loved it! Will be calling him back for next years St Patricks day party!

Dave was so professional. He was great at communicating and making sure we got what we were looking for. He really was a highlight of my father’s service. It was a beautiful moment and we heard from everyone that it really touched them during his performance.

We had a full house in the church for a funeral and Dave Champagne playing the pipes at the beginning and end of the service was perfect. He's amazing! Thanks so much, Fr Dave

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 18, 2023•From Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

He was more than just a bagpiper, for 15 minutes but an entertaining gentleman and magician as well. Our family had a delightful time with Dave, over the course of quite an afternoon.

Wedding•Reviewed on June 10, 2023•From Escondido, CA

Dave played bagpipes at our wedding in 1991. In 2023, he played at our daughters wedding. Very professional, and a great bagpipe player.

Dave did an excellent job at the Celebration of Life for my husband. He showed up early, was friendly with guests, and empathetic with me. The guests were moved by his performance.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 19, 2022•From Los Angeles, CA

I hired Dave Champagne to play his bagpipes at my father’s memorial. The memorial park told us that it was going to be an outside event. Just minutes before start-time, we were informed that the service would be held in a chapel. Bagpipes are outdoor instruments! Dave was able to pivot and played just outside the venue. He even faded at the end of “Amazing Grace”. A true performer! His professionalism made for a memorable service that my father would have loved.

Funeral•Reviewed on November 16, 2022•From Palmdale, CA

Dave did a wonderful job at my mother's funeral. He travelled all the way to Palmdale, was there on time and did not even charge me a sur-charge like others tried to request. He played amazing grace and was a professional during the entire funeral. I would hire Dave again, (I just hope not for another funeral). Thanks Dave!

Funeral•Reviewed on September 29, 2022•From Whittier, CA

Dave was perfect as our bagpiper. Sounded great, looked great, very accommodating and professional - and respectful and sensitive to our needs (graveside). We added a drummer too (through Dave), which added immeasurably to the event. Highly recommend Dave. Very easy to work with, you won't be disappointed!

Private Party•Reviewed on August 28, 2022•From Redondo Beach, CA

Dave Champagne is a talented musician, a total pro, a gentleman and a showman. He also deeply cares about doing the gig right and to the client's specification. I recommend him highly.

Funeral•Reviewed on July 26, 2022•From Cypress, CA

Dave was professional, easy to contact and update with our requests, and super accommodating with how we wanted him to perform during the service, I can't say enough good things about him. Responds through text and phone calls. Performed beautifully the 2 songs we requested. Completely satisfied, highly recommend!

Funeral•Reviewed on November 16, 2018•From San Fernando, CA

Dave Champagne is ever the consummate professional. He took the time to speak with me to get a better understanding of what I was expecting from him. He listened patiently and answered any questions I had as well as suggesting different genres of music that were appropriate for my father's service. He walked me through the entire service - where he would begin, procession, posturing, etc. He definitely knows what he is doing. The time he took to acquaint himself with me and my father definitely speaks volumes about his character and commitment. If you're looking for someone who is professional, caring, and compassionate, then Dave is definitely your man!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 16, 2012•From Costa Mesa, CA

Dave helped me surprise my father for his 84th birthday and made a wonderful memory thanks to the upbeat tunes he planned on his bagpipe. He also connected with Dad by patiently listening to his stories of travel in Scotland and Ireland.

Review by Donald F.

Funeral•Reviewed on October 15, 2018•From Palmdale, CA

Dave was the upmost professional. He showed up and discussed with the Deacon how the order of the memorial service for my father was to go which took a lot of pressure off of my mother. His playing was great, his demeanor was pleasant and friendly. I would highly recommend that you book him for any service you may need.

Donald, It was my pleasure. I’m happy that I was able to meet your expectations. All my best to you and to your family. Regards, Dave Champagne

Funeral•Reviewed on August 12, 2018•From Rowland Heights, CA

Bravo! Dave Champagne was incredible! He arrived early and was ready to play before the doors opened. Dave knew all the songs I wanted played, and he played them beautifully! He was dressed in traditional bagpiper attire (kilt, etc.) and was professional and attentive. Perfection! Everyone who knew he was coming thought he was amazing! Everyone who was surprised by us having a bagpiper was in awe of him, and we all thought it was the best send-off we could’ve given our Mom.
