David Welsh is the Tourpiper. A Professional Bagpiper for all occasions.

Hire me now to add the special sound of the bagpipes to your special event, be it a Wedding, Birthday, Anniversary, Burns Supper or Corporate Conference.

For those sadder times I will add a stirring yet sympathetic touch to a Funeral or Memorial service.

I have played the pipes for over 30 years, learning in Aberdeen, Scotland and now living in Wellington, New Zealand. I have played for numerous bands including the legendary Shotts and Dykehead, winning two World Championships back in 2003 and 2005.

I am the current Pipe Major of the Wellington Red Hackle, moving them from Grade 4B to 2 in just 5 years. I am also a current member of the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band, based in Burnaby, British Columbia.
