The Grimsby Pipe Band is an actively participating pipes and drums band based in Grimsby, Ontario, Canada. We practice on Saturday mornings (10 am to noon) and Tuesday Evenings (6:45 pm to 9 pm). The Grimsby Pipe Band proudly wears the Earl of St. Andrew’s Tartan along with St. Andrew’s Crest on our glengarries.
** PIPER'S WANTED**
Interested in joining our Piping Rank?
In our 25 years of service to the community The Grimsby Pipe Band is reaching out to pipers, former pipers, and ex-competitors to consider joining a non- competition pipe and drum band. The Grimsby Pipe Band is actively seeking out Pipers who also might have retired from Piping but getting the nudge to get the pipes back out and getting back into the swirl that only a pipe band can deliver. We offer training on our tune selection both at practice and Skype as well when Needed. We mainly parade and perform in the Southern Ontario Region with a total of 16 to 18 events a year.
Practice is Tuesdays 6:45 to 9 pm and Saturday 9:45 am to 12 noon at the Cairns Christain School 795 Hwy 8 Stoney Creek. Our Pipe Chanters are provided which are poly Shepherd Classic as shared by all piping members of the band with good results. We also teach pitch control, setting your chanter to your drones and many other piping techniques.
Call Pipe Major Gordon Scott at 905 520 7981 ( cell and texting ) hope to hear from you.

Additional updates:
1) Private Lessons available for band members - There are private piping lessons for the band members ( on Skype) who wish to work on their piping skills and brush up on various band tunes. This has proven itself over and over again to be both productive and keeps the Piper abreast of any areas within a tune or set that might warrant additional practice.
2) Your invitation to join a fun, non-competitive, family-oriented street and event pipe and drum band!
If you’re a piper or side drummer who hasn't played in a while or would like to play for a non-competition pipe band, then please contact Gordon Scott by phone or text at +1-905-520-7981. The band is very supportive of our members and will provide instruction and help each other out. Our goal is always to enjoy ourselves and have fun playing as a band. Please join us !
The Grimsby Pipe Band is one of the very few Pipe and Drum bands to be fully independent and receives no monies unless we earn them through parades and events or through the generosity of its membership.
If you require a Piper for hire, we can assist there as well!
