Kevin was not only on time, but also, he was well prepared to play the songs that we had requested. I will gladly recommend him to a friend.

Funeral•Reviewed on June 19, 2019•From Arlington, VA

Amazing! Not only was he quick to respond, he was so polite and professional. He went out of his way to put a lot together because a funeral service at Arlington National Cemetery for a fallen Green Beret. Mr. O’Brien played for a long period of time while the Soldiers went through a long line of approximately 200 people to say their goodbyes to their teammate. It was impressive and I can’t imagine how that part of the service would have gone without his beautiful music. It was truly touching and his exit was remarkable as he played a last note as the last Soldier punched his crest into the casket and saluted. We highly recommend Mr. O’Brien and would use him again!

Kevin went out of his way to create an experience for our daughter's wedding. It was not an easy venue, yet Kevin navigated it well and created lasting memories for us and our guests.

Kevin was very accommodating and an excellent piper. We had some last minute major changes on the morning of our service at Arlington and Kevin didn't even flinch. I would definitely hire him again.

Funeral•Reviewed on September 19, 2018•From Baltimore, MD

Me.O’Brien was gracious enough to work with me in a short time period for the burial of my father. He dressed-the-part and played the beautiful bagpipes to send my Scottsman father back to the highlands....highly recommend!! Also, very fair pricing!!

Funeral•Reviewed on May 28, 2018•From Crownsville, MD

Mr. O’Brien is a lovely piper. He provided very appropriate and moving music as we said our final good-byes to our Scottish-Canadian mother both at the cemetery and in the church yard. It was beautiful! Mr. O’Brien was prompt, dressed appropriately in a lovely kilt, and easy to work with - very accommodating.

Event•Reviewed on November 21, 2017•From East Berlin, PA

Kevin was extremely accommodating on a very short notice, traveling way out of his way to make the “before sunrise” request a special, memorable event. He emailed me samples of the songs in advance of the gig. He played brilliantly, read the situation on the spot and selected songs that were celebratory as requested. I was absent for his playing, but accounts from my daughter and a few neighbors were all very complimentary! Kevin is a very gifted bag piper! Having Kevin play for the celebration was just terrific. He was terrific. I highly recommend Kevin to those seeking a memorable experience. Kevin, you’re the best!

Kevin was so easy to work with prior to the event and we would not hesitate to use him again. The feedback that we received from our attendees was all very positive!

Kevin was brilliant! He was professional & extremely reasonable in his price. His performance added so much to honor the memory of my father. I would (and will) recommend him strongly. Thanks, Kevin

Funeral•Reviewed on August 18, 2017•From Frederick, MD

Kevin is incredibly talented and made my mom's funeral perfect. Besides being an incredibly nice man, he is reliable and an amazingly skilled bagpiper. In fact, I can't imagine finding a more talented bagpiper. This was a sad occasion, my mother's funeral, but of everything she would have loved that we hired Kevin O'Brien to play her funeral was the best. There could be no better sendoff. Thank you Kevin for sharing your talents with us and for making my mom's funeral so beautiful!

I had Kevin perform for our senior living community and he was amazing. We had to switch locations because of weather and he adapted his program for the smaller venue. Would definitely work with him again.
