Maine Bagpipe player and  professional musician  Jeff Herbster from  Brunswick (Clan MacKay*)  will provide you with a wide range of musical services for any occasion.  From weddings to funerals, the sound of the Great Highland Bagpipes will stir emotions and provide a memorable experience, all at an affordable rate. For more intimate settings, ceilidh, and church services, the quiet and distinctive sound of the Scottish Smallpipes may provide the atmosphere needed.  In addition, bagpiping demonstrations and talks on Scottish heritage and traditions are given free of charge to church, charitable, civic, and school organizations. So please explore my website, read a bit about me,  and check out some of the links.  

"To the make of a piper go seven years...At the end of seven years one born to it will stand at the start of knowledge, and leaning a fond ear to the drone he may have parley with old folk of old affairs.  Playing the tune of 'The Fairy Harp', he can hear his forefolk, plaided in skins, towsy headed and terrible, grunting at the oars and snoring in the caves. He has his own whittle and club in 'The Desperate Battle' where the white haired sea rovers are on the shore, and a stain's on the edge of the tide; or, trying his art on Laments, he can stand by the cairn of kings, ken the colour of Fingal's hair, and see the moon glint on the hook of the Druids"
