Looking for experienced Pipers and Drummers
The Keith Highlanders Pipe Band is rapidly growing into the largest pipe band in the Seattle area. As a result of running a successful instruction program for pipers and drummers for the past two years, plus the recent competition success of the band, the band has many new pipers and drummers--some very accomplished--and the band has increased in size over 50%! Come to one of our practices; the KHPB is the place to be!
