The Sons of Scotland Pipe Band of Ottawa
Established 1896


If you are interested in joining the Sons of Scotland as a piper or drummer, drop us a line. Our history dates back to 1896, but the mandate stays the same - provide free instruction to those who wish to learn, and then go into the community to present that music.

E-mail the band Manager Robert Derry at derryr9@gmail.com for information on coming out.

Giving and Giving back

A campaign to help the band reach out to the community and provide wonderful drumming tuition to people who wish to learn - for only $50 you can make a difference in someone's life.  Music is both amazing to hear and to play and can bring such joy to many.  We hope you can give and share our campaign!
