Pipe-pop that packs a punch

Performing live around the globe

Hello!

We're the Rollin' Drones!

We're a dynamic, energetic and largely ridiculous bagpipe pop band based in Glasgow, Scotland. We take modern songs and infuse them with traditional tunes on that age-old Scottish instrument - the bagpipes!. Pepper in a chunk of ceilidh and a truckload of personality and you've got yourself a party! 


Formed in 2015 with world class pipers Mike Farrel and Greg McAllister at the helm, we love nothing more than playing festivals and events worldwide. We released our first album in 2017 and our second album 'The Twa Keys' in 2024.

Our network of talent now spans over 20 incredible musicians who work to the highest standard to give our audiences a fantastic bagpipe pop experience.
