The MacLaine of Lochbuie Pipe Band was formed in March 2007 and is based in Warrington in the North West of England.The Main aims of the band are:-
1. Competition, it is the desire of the members to enter competitions in the UK. The main priority is to attend the Major championships and win prizes at local and national contests.
2. Teaching, the band is open to anyone who wants to learn pipes or drums. Full tuition is given to all standards by experienced competent players. Tuition for pipes and drums will follow the syllabus for the PDQB.
The band is honoured to have been granted permission to wear the Modern MacLaine of Lochbuie Tartan, Clan Badge and to carry the name of the Clan. Permission was kindly granted by the Clan Chief, Lorne MacLaine of Lochbuie.
Current situation,
The band are currently busy securing funds to purchase instruments and uniforms.
Members are available to hire to play Bagpipes and drums at your Wedding, Birthday and other celebrations, we can also provide a mini pipe band.
Although we have a small nucleus of players we are keen to recruit both experienced and student pipers and drummers. We currently have members who come from all over the North West including Warrington, Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside.
