Jamestown Pipes and Drums

Jamestown Pipes and Drums (JPD) is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization located in Jamestown, North Carolina. The band was formed in 1999 with the goal of educating the Triad community about Scottish heritage and the musical culture of the Great Highland Bagpipe.

The band is led by Pipe Major Eric Sparklin and Drum Sargent Robert Monroe.
