The Stewart Tartan Pipes and Drums will present their Free Spring Scottish Concert on Saturday, April 13, 2013, starting at 7:00 PM at The Christ's Community Church, in Hayward (25927 Kay Av., Hayward CA, at Calaroga Av.).

The concert features bagpipes & drums (Full band, solos and quartets), Scottish ballads, and The Piedmont Highland Dancing School. As a special extra... Irish Bagpipes.


Families are welcome (and encouraged to come).


"The band is a relaxed group of musicians, drawn together as much by the camaraderie of the band as our shared interest in the music", said Paul Olson, Drum Major.  Current membership is twenty-five, with experience ranging from one year to almost forty years. New pipers and drummers are always welcome.  The band also has a Grade 5 competition band.

Other performances include a mix of parades, shows, birthdays, weddings and special events, Disney Land, PGA's The President's Cup golf tournament, Silicon Valley Open , AT&T park for the SF Giants, Oakland Raiders, Davies Symphony, FaceBook and Mountain Winery with the Chieftains. The Holiday Concert is the highlight of the season.
