Funeral•Reviewed on October 28, 2021•From Tuscaloosa, AL

Jim was on time for the event. I was worried that he was not going to show when he didn’t respond to my text message the day before, but he arrived when I had asked him to. My father would’ve enjoyed the playing that Jim did. I was happy with how easy it was to find and book Jim. I felt like the song Amazing Grace was rushed through but it was still an okay song. Thank you Jim!

Mr. Jim played at my wedding as surprise for my husband. He did a great job and was very accommodating. He was a hit and made my wedding very memorable.

Thank you. I enjoyed the time with you and your family. A spectacular venue and food was great. Best wished for a long and happy marriage. Jim

Jim Macrae did a great job playing "Amazing Grace" and "The Campbells are Coming". He showed up 1 1/2 hour before the event and accommodated every request. The bagpipes sounded fantastic.

Thank you, Andrew

Very professional. Made accommodations simply. Knew how to contact funeral home and cemetery for timing and location. Played traditional songs appropriate for event. Would have liked to hear a couple more songs. Overall satisfied for the intended purpose.

We requested 2 songs and Mr. McRae played both of them well. Several of our wedding guests commented on how much they enjoyed his piping!

Mr. MacRae was wonderful to deal with. His prompt response to all questions, setting up a time where we could hear him in Birmingham and his promptness the day of the wedding was excellent. I would recommend Jim to everyone!!!

Jim was easy to contact. Always returned my emails or calls. So cooperative in playing the selections we wanted & when we wanted them play. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a good bagpiper in the Birmingham or surrounding areas.
