Hi Friends!

I created this fundraiser to help one of my closest and dearest friends collect the funds to join his Pipe and Drum Band, Capital City Pipes & Drums when they attend the 2026 World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow, Scotland next August!

You may ask yourself, who is this amazing Piper? Great question! Why it is none other than the brilliantly talented John “Tallisyn” Holland, award winning Bagpiper of PICTUS and Mother Grove.

So many of us have enjoyed his hard work and dedication to his craft. I would be thrilled for all of us, his friends, fans, and loved ones, to contribute towards gifting him with the opportunity to travel, compete, and enjoy himself with his bandmates at the greatest Bagpipe competition in the world.

Please consider donating! Any amount helps! I opened this early to give plenty of time for people to contribute, so please consider a few smaller or recurring donations if that is more practical.

Thank you all, so very much!
