Mesa Caledonian Pipe Band
Formed in 1980, Mesa Caledonian has grown to a program boasting two competitive units in Grade III and Grade IV, having earned Western U.S. Championships and other international prizes. We strive to promote the art of piping and drumming through education and performance. Mesa Caledonian plays up to fifty engagements per year, which includes up to ten competitions. We also offer lessons for bagpipes, snare, tenor and bass drumming.
The Mesa Caledonian Pipe Band is Arizona’s premier Scottish pipe band, consisting of bagpipers and drummers. The band was founded in 1980 with just four founding members, and today boasts over 30 performing members.
The mission of MCPB is to preserve and promote the Scottish Heritage through the performance and education of the traditional music on the bagpipes and drums, and through the arts of Highland Dance and Drum Majoring.
The band is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization, and all members are volunteers.
