Community Event•Reviewed on May 19, 2007•From La Mirada, CA

I was a little concerned during the week prior to the event as we did not have any calls or emails until the day before we had the event. Darrell did show up on time and was there for the event, it would have been a little less pressure on me if he had been a few minutes earlier, however it worked out great. Bob Jenkins

Despite cold temperatures and pouring rain, Darrell did a great job and added a nice touch to my Dad's funeral. I would highly recommend his service. Thanks, Darrell!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 26, 2007•From Santa Ana, CA

They never showed up! It was a complete disaster and almost ruined our wedding. We are very upset and have yet to hear from them. It's been several weeks now and they STILL have not returned my phone calls or money. DO NOT HIRE THIS GROUP!!!!

I highly recommend Darrell for your event! I hired him to surprise my mom with a trip to Scotland and he was so easy to work with. Punctual, friendly, talented and a fun addition to the party. Thank you!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 30, 2007•From Fullerton, CA

My experience was a complete NIGHTMARE. It was my grandmother's 90th birthday party, where family members literally flew in from around the world. The performer failed to show up and failed to even call with an explanation or an apology. I had to apologize and explain to the entire party for this pathetic performers lack of professionalism. I will never in my life be able to forget the disappointment in my dear grandmother's face when she learned that he was obviously not going to bother to show up to her very special day. I hope that this website will at least decide to pay back my deposit fee since there is nothing that can be done to remedy this DISASTER.

Funeral•Reviewed on September 22, 2018•From Sacramento, CA

I was so impressed with his kindness and suggestions. Even more was the attire they wore was impressive. Our entire family was moved by all he did and even as things changed at last minute he offered additional pieces to play. I can't thank him enough. I would definitely call on him again when the time arises.

Darrell really made our memorial service very special. We talked several times before the event, he helped with music selection and just made the whole process very easy. Thank you!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 22, 2013•From San Pedro, CA

I spoke with you on Saturday the day before my father's Memorial service. My concern was that Darrell had not returned any of my calls. He did call me after you placed a call to him. After that we agreed on the songs, time, and finances. Darrell did not show up on time to play at the beginning of the service. He started playing the bagpipes during the funneral service. I had to leave the service and ask him to stop. This was the first time that I saw him that day. He offered no apology. He did play at the end of the service. I paid him in full because I did Not want any kind of a scene at my father, Memorial. It was an awful experience.

Funeral•Reviewed on July 3, 2018•From Upland, CA

He came at the last minute due to a sudden cancellation. He was amazing. He new all the songs and new when and what to play with out having to be instructed. Everyone was brought to tears and that was the best send off we could have done. GEORGE SLOSS would be happy. Thank you Darrell. If not for you it would have been a disaster.

He was very professional and talented. I liked that he was knowledgeable about music, Scottish tradition and he was able to determine the best way to march in and out of our event.
