About Us

About Us / The Band History / Support The Band

The Washington Scottish Pipe Band is a Grade III band based in Seattle, Washington.  As a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization, we are dedicated to the promotion of Scottish culture through performance and education.  Our musicians include students and professionals, teenagers and 50-somethings, but all share this dedication.

We trace our roots back to the late 19th century, making us one of the oldest pipe bands in the Pacific Northwest.  Throughout our history, we have maintained a tradition of excellence.  Today, the band holds membership in the British Columbia Pipe Band Association and competes at most of the BCPBA contests in the Pacific Northwest.  Besides pipe band contests, we have numerous performances throughout the year.  Recent performances include the Northwest Folklife Festival, the opening of the PGA Tournament in Seattle, a pregame performance at a Seattle Seahawks game, and the Boeing Good Neighbor Fund Celebration.  Not to mention being the featured entertainers at piper Jim Guthrie’s wedding!  (See various disturbing images from these and other events on our media page.)
