Piper’s Request is a group of four friends from different musical backgrounds who love nothing better than to get together to play traditional Irish dance tunes and sing. After appearing at local seisiuns (Irish jam sessions) and parties, they were encouraged by friends and fans to form a band and perform.
As the name suggests, Piper’s Request features the all-too-rare sounds of the Irish bagpipes. Terry Hartzell plays flute and whistles as well as the pipes. Fred Gilmartin and Rick Weaver each play banjo, guitar, mandolin and fiddle. And Fred, Rick and Megan Everett sure have a lot of fun with the singing, inviting their audiences to join in the fun.
Life is good when toes are tapping and people are singing together!
