About
Craig has had a long and successful piping career spanning over 40 years, first learning to play the
pipes at the age of ten. Since then, piping has taken him all over North America, Europe and the UK
both on tours, competing and for a period, commuting to Los Angeles to play in The LA Scots, at that
time the USA’s only Grade 1 band. His most notable achievements are from the time spent in
Northern Ireland playing in Grade 1, with Field Marshal Montgomery Pipe Band where he won every
Major Championship including the World Championship in 2004. Other Northern Ireland Bands
include the Royal Ulster Constabulary.
Additionally, Craig has throughout his piping career played at Weddings, Funerals, Parties of every
kind, Burns Nights and Corporate events. He has appeared on TV, including playing on a New Years’
Eve Show of Emmerdale and Highway with Sir Harry Secombe to commemorate The Bradford City
Fire.
