The Brian Boru Irish Pipe Band was established in 1962 to preserve and advance Celtic piping, drumming, and dancing. We are one of the oldest existing pipe bands in the Upper Midwest. Over the years the Brian Boru Band has become a fixture in parades, celebrations, dances, and an increasing number of private festivities. We play for local, regional, and national events, adding a sense of tradition and spirit of pageantry to every program in which we participate.
Our distinctive Irish uniforms -- the saffron kilt, black tunic, and black cabeen (beret) with green or red plumes -- are modeled after traditional Irish pipe bands. A number of the band members wear the original brass buttons from uniforms of the Irish Volunteers, the very units involved in the historic Easter Uprising in Dublin, 1916. Officers of the Brian Boru Band, recognized by the distinctive red sash worn across their left shoulder, choose the tunes you hear.
Some of the music performed by the Brian Boru Band came out of that fierce era of Ireland's past. Other pieces are more modern, and many are much, much older -- ancient reels and airs, timeless ballads and war marches, and lively, lighthearted jigs.Band/artist history

I just finished recording my very first single, Better Days. It is a song I wrote for my wife as she recovered from cancer surgery last year. I was wondering if you would take a listen to it and let me know what you think of it? I am at: www.soundclick.com/timjuillet, & can also be found on the charts as well under Pop/Christian Contemporary.. Also, please forward the link to anyone who is suffering from a disease, or going through a serious struggle. God Bless!

I found your link while doing maintenance on my own site. Great music! I forwarded to a friend of mine who's absolutely a nut for the bagpipes. Pleasure to hear your fine band.
