About John Dally

I started playing Highland pipes at the age of 11, then after a long search started playing Northumbrian small pipes at age 21. I compose tunes, do research and make bags, and other leather goods. I am a huge fan of the Lowland pipes, Scottish small pipes, C#D button accordion, whistles, flute, and my lovely wife's music. Visit www.kateggleston.com
