From a cameo appearance at T in The Park in 2004 with The Darkness to opening the main stage in their own right in 2014, the past ten years has seen The Red Hot Chilli Pipers become the most famous bagpipe band on the planet \u2013 ever! Bagpipes with attitude, drums with a Scottish accent and a show so hot it carries its own health warning. The band\u2019s achievements have reached incredible heights with their ground-breaking fusion of traditional Scottish music and Rock\/Pop Anthems which they proudly call \u2018Bagrock.\u2019<\/p>\n

Highlights from the band\u2019s past few years include; a Gold Disk for over 100,000 UK sales for their first album, Triple Platinum album status for their third album, twice awarded \u2018Best Live Act in Scotland and sell out tours, gigs and festivals worldwide to name but a few!<\/p>\n

The Chillis have never been more in demand for their infectious style of feel good music which appeals right across the age range to people all over the world. They have a pool of the very best musicians from Scotland and across the globe \u2013 many holding World Champion titles and all serious players with impressive credentials and qualifications.<\/p>\n
