Piper's Creek plays a blend of Scottish and Irish traditional music seasoned with American and European influences.

Some have described the sound as being delicate and thoughtful, while others have remarked on the underlying energy that emerges in our dance tunes. From a tender aire or slow reel, the mood can shift in a heartbeat to the driving pulse of a jig or hornpipe.

A colorful array of instrumentation allows the sound to change dramatically within one tune set. Fiddles, smallpipes, whistles, harp, guitar, bouzouki and concertina combine create a smooth but edgy listening experience.

The band takes it's name from the Piper's Creek Watershed, a beautiful, lush corner of North Seattle.
