For several years, we have enjoyed Dan’s bagpipe music at our church. His performance adds so much interest to our processional at special celebration services, like Palm Sunday. Working with Dan is easy and rewarding.  He arrives early and comes well prepared. The resonant sound of the pipes fills our church and always impresses our congregation. I hope we can schedule him again, soon!

Dan Johnson provided the perfect touch for our church’s recent anniversary celebration.  Leading the Processional, we heard his bagpipes wail before we saw him with his red hair and Stewart plaid kilts!  As Music Director and Organist, it was a joy to work with him.  Because Dan has the skill to play tuned pipes we were able to include the organ in some of the selections.  We look forward to having him return in the future.  One thing to add is Dan’s wonderful personality and his sense of humor!

My church community very much enjoyed Dr. Daniel Johnson’s bagpiping during our church service last summer.  He was professional, accommodating, and easy to work with throughout the process.  My congregation loved seeing him dressed in his Highland kilt and very much enjoyed the fact he played both familiar hymns as well as introduced them to new music.  We hope to have him back soon!

Thank you, Dan, for making my husband's retirement party so special. Dan was very professional from the communication before the event to his professional attire and performance. He arrived early to the event to set up and warm up. He took and played requests perfectly.  Dan made sure he was providing the performance to our liking throughout the event.  It was a pleasure working with him, and I look forward to future events. Thank you again.

Every September 11th we have a memorial ceremony at Marriot OceanWatch Villas where Dan plays the most amazing patriotic music that really enhances our event. For the last few years, our owners and guests look forward to seeing him perform. This year he made it more interactive for them to follow the lyrics. This really went above and beyond for them. Dan is easy to work with and very responsive to any request that you may have. We look forward to booking him for future events.

I had the privilege of having Dan play the bagpipes at my partner Carol’s memorial. Carol never asked for much but she did want bagpipes played at her memorial. Dan was amazing and so respectful. I highly recommend him!
