Nursing Home Event•Reviewed on September 19, 2026•From Denison, TX

Don was wonderful! My residents loved him. He is very personable and took time talking with the residents after his performance. Don is very talented and came dressed for the occasion. This was an amazing experience for our staff and residents. I would highly recommend Don for your next event.

Funeral•Reviewed on July 1, 2026•From Coppell, TX

In my humble opinion, Don Shannon is one of the best bagpipe musicians that I’ve ever heard. Having a military and law enforcement background, I’ve had the occasion to hear many over the years. Don played three (3) songs at my brother’s funeral (ie., Amazing Grace, Danny Boy, and Coming Home). There wasn’t a dry eye in attendance. Although it was a very sad event, Don made it special and unforgettable. He gave my brother a special and honorable send off. I strongly recommend Don for any occasion. He’s a pleasant man, respectful, accommodating, and an awesome musician. Thanks Don for everything!!! Respectfully The Cox family
