The Red Hot Chilli Pipers

The Red Hot Chilli Pipers are affectionately referred to in Scotland as the next Jock and Roll; an accolade realised after the band shot to international fame after appearing on television performing their very own brand of traditional but contemporary (if you will allows us that paradox) Scottish music. The band are a troupe of established and highly regarded musicians who have taken a traditional Scottish instrument, the Bagpipes, not usually associated with popular music and given classic rock and pop songs a whole new flavour. This has opened the doors of Pop music to those who's taste lay in the traditional pipes and their classic songs; but now the hardened traditionalist can he seen toe tapping to Smoke on the Water and Coldplay songs as well as Flower of Scotland!

The band has many celebrity endorsers including Ewan McGregor, Max Clifford and Dave Spikey. The Band also played on the Darkness single One Way Ticket To Hell and Back and they also featured on the Soundtrack of the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

The players are:

Bagpipes; Stuart Cassells, Willie Armstrong and Kevin MacDonald
Guitar; Gregor James
Snare Drum; Steven Graham
Percussion; Malcom McEwan
Drum Kit; Steven Black
Keyboards; Chris Russell
