This episode is largely me talking about my time at Pipers’ Gathering and playing some tracks from the impromptu sessions that happened there.
You can hear many pipers playing, but specifically John Charles Bauschatz, Benjamin Elzerman, Robert Mitchell, Rod Nevin, Patrick Hutchinson, Casandre Balosso-Bardin, Mike MacNintch, Thomas Deneuville, and too many more to list.
