I would love to see you post some educational content!!!! Everything from how the pipes work to maybe even some basic beginner level lessons on playing?? I'm a musician and LOVE learning new instruments and have loved the sound and ambiance of bagpipes since I was little, your content has really made that interest skyrocket!
Ally please be careful about signing your music to others. It's a slower process if you keep full control of your creativity. My favourite band Larkin Poe is a great model of keeping your sound. Please consider playing at Vancouver Folk Music Festival 2023. 🇨🇦Canada. Collaboration is a great way to expand your audience.
Always loved the mass pipes and drums…. This girl has reinvented the pipes! Unbelievable talent! I love the way she can smile mid pipe…. And the way she can play anything.
She's supernaturally talented. I don't come across many pipers and I'm, well, blown away. I'm thankful she took a wee bit to remind us that she is indeed human. Keep on piping🎉!
Not a huge tiktok fan but I subscribe to her and go to see her videos. Because of her, my son is learning the Scottish whistle with the bagpipes as the ultimate goal.
She's an amazing young woman. So talented. I saw a few of Ally's shorts on RUclips and your interview came up. It was really nice to learn more about her. Very fun conversation, thanks for this!
This is the first time I seen your channel. You got Ms Ally 🥰 on it... Subscribed! I've heard a lot of people playing the bagpipes, all professionals. But i have to say, she's my favorite and helped boost my appreciation for them by allowing us to actually watch her up close. I really appreciate her hard work, enthusiasm, and especially the costumes she chooses to go with whatever she's intending to play. She's a musician, a cosplayer, an instructor all in one! She's amazing.
@@JefeDow double checked. It is indeed marked on the calendar. Since time is unknown and work schedules, I'll look for it as soon as I get home 👍👍 thank you sir for the reminder
Wow... As good as this girl's music is, and it's fabulous, it's obvious she's even a better person because of her choices and her maturity....very impressive young lady!!!
Firefighters are a clan of their own, and a clan holds a wake to celebrate, not mourn, the dead. So yes, being able to have two live pipers impromptu at a wake! What a great send off. Big karma points to you for doing that.
12:30 many years ago I came across the actor Michael York in a music store in London. I just smiled and nodded and went back to browsing the sheet music. My girlfriend was so angry I didn't tell her till afterwards!
Love all of you 😀♥️ Have subscribed to Ally on RUclips and of course to this channel. When I wear Kilt it's hunting Frazer muted. Greetings from Germany 😀👍
Old comment, but rewatching these since I bought a practice chanter and seeing if Ally has some pointers in these videos. I agree that 'Forbidden Songs on Forbidden Pipes' SHOULD have been actual bagpipes. Mel Gibson dropped the ball with not having that, but I guess most of the budget was spent trying to convince us William Wallace wasn't a knight and didn't wear a kilt or paint himself blue 😂. Seriously though, I'm glad you guys do this stuff and do the culture stuff. It's great to listen to on my walk to work and then when I'm just wanting to learn and laugh along
There ya go Gents, new product line, Tartan lingerie !!! Great program and she's very talented and professional. I'd love to see her get a chance to play with Clanadonia! Excellent Traditional Scottish band......
It is not. (There are all kinds of things the piper can do to adjust his pipes to play easily and sweetly, and it would take a Matt Willis piping video to show them all.) Go at it systematically, taking one or two gracenotes and doublings at a time, step by step, and the next step. Often using this tune or that as an exercise at playing this figure/gracenote or that. That's how the College of Piping tutorial books do it.
I really like your performances, it brings out new life for this fantasic instrument. Since you collaborate with violin and so, what about collaborating with Havasi ? I believe this would open up new worlds in music.
Long songs can be good, that allows for switching time signatures, instruments, ...everything? If you can finnd the time, try listening to two live songs from the Finnish band called Nightwish. 1 Ghost Live Score live in Wacken. There is a brief pause towards the middle of the song, but it goes on spectacularly after a minute. Their lead singer Floor Jansen has great voice control. 2 The Greatest Show on Earth live in London. Here a piper plays a different pipe, but I do not want to make a spoiler. 1:03:35 1:03:35 After the band has finished playing, background music appears, do not stop there, rather continue listening until Richard Dawkins quites some lines written by Darwin. I hope you enjoy them. I'm a piper as well, though still struggling to improve and recover my throws on d and Taorluaths after the Covid lockdown wouldn't allow playing the pipes so as to not disturb my neighbours. Some practice with the practiced chanter was possible, burg not with the full instrument. As a result of this I'm slowly recovering my stamina in order to play comfortably. Thanks for the interesting interview and the beautiful music you play. Slàinte Conrad Daubanton City of Barcelona Pipe Band
If you are considering a "tour" I think you would do well at Iowa Irish Fest. The Red Hot Chili Pipers are there, again, this year. You're "playing pipes in a bikini" was sheer genius.
Social media is a lot of work. I've posted some flying videos on RUclips and staff spinning clips on IG/tiktok (for fun) and they take a lot of time and effort for a single person. Piper posts everyday.. yikes @36:00 Pipers next shirt "Will play for spaghetti 🍝 "
If you've never heard Jimi Hendrix's version of The Star Spangled Banner on the Woodstock albums, he takes it and the guitar to singular places. Another challenge, or inspiration, to go totally unconventional.
America is a Land!! Scottish is an Ethnic Bloodline Ethnic DNA as a China man born in scottland does not make his Scottish!! People please get this correct!! We're not hybreed greats. I'm 100 pure untainted.. Aut Pax Aut Bellum!! And the United States of Europa how's that going?
Ally's a David Tenet fan? I knew there was something beyond the pipes I liked about her, lol. (Tom Baker was my Doctor too, but Tenet is the best of new show.)
27:49 sorry if this sounds stupid but i don’t really understand your argument. You love making music so you’ve turned that love into a money spinner now your saying you don’t have time for a life because your too busy doing something you love? If music wasn’t your job what would be doing between shifts? Making music? I have a mate whose a writer. Before he became a professional he carried a notebook around to write down all his snippets of inspiration. Now that he’s a published writer he still carries that notebook around, the only thing thats changed is he’s getting paid. So its not like his life is being consumed by his work its more like he’s turned his life into his work.
Thank you two so much! I really enjoyed this chat and hanging with you both!!
Dear Ally doing a great job. I’ve got a piping idea no one is doing and I think you’ll be great at it. Please contact me and I’ll explain. Donald.

Thanks, Ya'll, for this interview. This young lady is such an inspiration and really gives me hope for the future generations
New fan of Piper Ally. Stumbled upon this interview.
Piper Ally is both a great piper AND an awesome human!
I love her videos on RUclips
Talent + beauty = Ally The Piper. Good stuff!
Just love the bagpipes so glad to see someone bringing them into more traditional music country, pop, ect.
She's supernaturally talented. I don't come across many pipers and I'm, well, blown away. I'm thankful she took a wee bit to remind us that she is indeed human. Keep on piping🎉!
Great video guys. It’s always nice to learn about an artist, seems like a very genuine, nice lady.

Thanks for subbing! Check back on March 3rd... we might have a special live guest. 😁
@@USAKiltsOfficial nice 👍👍 I'm going to mark it on Google calendar so I get reminded.
Well said, thank you, sir!

I love it when two of people/channels I follow get together. Thanks for doing this interview.
How prefect is this! I just started following her on RUclips a couple of months ago. Please keep the content coming.
Love the interview, Ally . As always, you killed it.
Can’t wait. She’s my fav act on tiltok.
PLEASE,PLEASE GO ON TOUR Ally The Piper !!! When you do ,please make some stops in Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
Brilliant chat by very alive people. And of course there are the pipes.
Wow... As good as this girl's music is, and it's fabulous, it's obvious she's even a better person because of her choices and her maturity....very impressive young lady!!!
Great to drop in....Should do this more often....
Really enjoyed the chat. It was nice lighthearted fare. Thank You!
This was a wonderful interview.
Awesome video & interview & yes I am subscribed to Ally on RUclips, such a great young lady
Just come up in my feed it was great to hear you talk about your music and fantastic interview
Firefighters are a clan of their own, and a clan holds a wake to celebrate, not mourn, the dead. So yes, being able to have two live pipers impromptu at a wake! What a great send off. Big karma points to you for doing that.
thank you RUclips for bringing me here 😝❤️🤭
Thanks for coming!
Awesome interview!
Hugely talented lady and seems genuine with it.
she is both. :-)
So cool to see this. Looking forward to the albums.
Great video, thank you for sharing it with us.
A very good Piper, always a good idea to hear her music :)
Cool interview, I'm a Ally fan on RUclips always curious about ally's history and now I know. 👌
12:30 many years ago I came across the actor Michael York in a music store in London. I just smiled and nodded and went back to browsing the sheet music. My girlfriend was so angry I didn't tell her till afterwards!
You go into a firefighter's wake with bagpipes, you will always be the highlight of the event. We love us some pipes.
Love all of you 😀♥️ Have subscribed to Ally on RUclips and of course to this channel. When I wear Kilt it's hunting Frazer muted. Greetings from Germany 😀👍
Farm out! I wear a light weight Ancient Hunting Fraser great kilt when the weather is a bit warmer.
Great interview guys, excellent questions. 👏
I grew up in Nova Scotia. The most Scottish place outside of Scotland. Everyone there played the bag pipes but not like Ally. She rocks.
Mucho talento chica!
Estupendo, 👍🏻⭐
Saludos de un Uruguayo 🇺🇾🧉
She talked and sound so ...jus t so beautiful..I love her she's amazing

One of the most beautiful girls in the world! Extremely talented also!!!
What a great interview
This is awesome
Wow I love it veri much ❤
Talented and cute. Subscribed now
That was a good interview
Quick suggestion, would it be possible to put in the vid description which tartans you guys are wearing in each of your videos?
Oh cool, you guys interviewed Ally 🤤
There ya go Gents, new product line, Tartan lingerie !!! Great program and she's very talented and professional. I'd love to see her get a chance to play with Clanadonia! Excellent Traditional Scottish band......
I love Piper Ally! I have her album and follow her on Instagram and Patreon. Oh, and I like you guys too.
I think Ally is wonderful and her bagpipe music is so fantastic. I would like to play a bagpipe, too, but I think it is too difficult, isn t it? 😀
It is not. (There are all kinds of things the piper can do to adjust his pipes to play easily and sweetly, and it would take a Matt Willis piping video to show them all.) Go at it systematically, taking one or two gracenotes and doublings at a time, step by step, and the next step. Often using this tune or that as an exercise at playing this figure/gracenote or that.

À propòs of nothing, a thought: if a bagpiper is an introvert, you'll never know.
Hi guys can you please tell me what the tartan is behind ally ?
If you are talking about the black, red, blue and white one, that’s the American Heritage tartan.
This is gooood.
Word of the Day: Incomparable
Ally is a Whovian?! Instant connection here. I should follow her... And I am fully on board with changing the name for a fan to Wholigan.
Felicidades por tu talento por tu inteligencia tu trabajo dice que eres excelente Dios te bendiga mucho te cuide mucho y tenga suerte
After flute, clarinet, saxophone, bagpipes and keyboard, has Piper Ally ever played recorder?
Finally the algorithm decided to show me this!
Great interview, Ally is awesome! I am Scottish and Scotland the Brave is the only pipe tune I don't like!
Awesome vid! Thanks! Also please try to interview The Snake Charmer! She is also an amazing bagpiper!
She said she was "swell!" I use this term all the time and this was the first person I have heard that uses it too.
Special young lady 👍
I love her content on Instagram!
All I can say is wow you are fantastic
If she was not there I would have never known just saying she is great.!!
I really like your performances, it brings out new life for this fantasic instrument. Since you collaborate with violin and so, what about collaborating with Havasi ? I believe this would open up new worlds in music.
43:40 All hail that Henderson chic. We are not worthy 🙏
Very beautiful 💫
Bonnie lass, great piper.
Love you two boys and lovely Ally! (…although I have to reduce her speech speed s bit , sometimes…❤)
Regards from Cologne -Carlpiper
Cool.. I'm going to be listen to her... bye for now
Frigga is so beautiful!!! I wish I had an emotional support axe! Also. Those pipes really looked good in that bikini lol.
Can you play guitars?
Long songs can be good, that allows for switching time signatures, instruments, ...everything?
If you can finnd the time, try listening to two live songs from the Finnish band called Nightwish.
1 Ghost Live Score live in Wacken. There is a brief pause towards the middle of the song, but it goes on spectacularly after a minute. Their lead singer Floor Jansen has great voice control.
2 The Greatest Show on Earth live in London.

I hope you enjoy them.
I'm a piper as well, though still struggling to improve and recover my throws on d and Taorluaths after the Covid lockdown wouldn't allow playing the pipes so as to not disturb my neighbours. Some practice with the practiced chanter was possible, burg not with the full instrument. As a result of this I'm slowly recovering my stamina in order to play comfortably.
Thanks for the interesting interview and the beautiful music you play.

@36:00 Pipers next shirt "Will play for spaghetti 🍝 "
Yes, this is a nice girl! Cool clothes and nice music!
I’m glad she has a RUclips channel because I’d rather cut my arms off than use TikTok. If idiots could fly TikTok would be an airport.
Мимпотная деваха ! ))
I have no musical talent whatsoever.. but she has inspired me, at sixty, to get some pipes…. 😊
Why didn't give her a mic? Way softer than the two guys. Would like to have heard her better.
I did have a mic!
More gain, or potting up, would have helped hearing Ally. The guys were booming by comparison.
@@PiperAlly 😂😂😂
I love her art, but I can't stop fixating on her beauty.
I feel that Ally should collab with Devin Townsend since they're both introverted musicians.
If a piper is an introvert, you'll never know...
If you'd ever like to mix some Gaelic with Gallic I'm down . Tres joli madame. 😜

I enjoy her music, that being said I will not use TicToc, or twitter.

So Ally is american, not scottish?
Yes no Scottish accent very American

Conbratulation mans i see friends, and i've never been so sure and are you the same you? Are those you eyes? Ist that you smail? So beautiful to me
I know that Eric is wearing the Alaska Seal Tartan, what are Rocky and Ally wearing?
They answer that question about 53 minutes into the video. Peace.
Nice thumbnail
Ally's a David Tenet fan? I knew there was something beyond the pipes I liked about her, lol. (Tom Baker was my Doctor too, but Tenet is the best of new show.)

I have a mate whose a writer. Before he became a professional he carried a notebook around to write down all his snippets of inspiration. Now that he’s a published writer he still carries that notebook around, the only thing thats changed is he’s getting paid. So its not like his life is being consumed by his work its more like he’s turned his life into his work.

She's not scottish or she would have said your bald heed
Pat Benetar - RIGHT ON!!!
Also - luv following you & your cohorts on Instagram. Looks like y’all have fun! Slainte mhath!
Its not Johnny Cash, but "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" ...
Oh! RUclips's AI just showed me you've already done that!
Not into her style of piping but I think if it gets more younger people playing the pipes the better
