Bio

From hyped-up traditional to piped-up pop and originals, Pipeworkz fuses a diverse range of musical styles and instruments to produce an experience unlike any others - its inspiration drawn from a heritage rich in Scottish passion and Pacific pride.

After six years pioneering the City of Invercargill Caledonian Pipe Band's internationally acclaimed show 'Pipin' Hot', Pipeworkz members formed their own company to further explore and develop their unique presentation and sound. The result is an entertainment package unique in the world.

The best of kiwi and international pop, Pipeworkz's own compositions, traditional Scottish, Maori and Pacific Island are blended together like you've never heard before.

The range of instruments will astonish and surprise you; the quality of the delivery and presentation will impress.

Pipeworkz can cater for any occasion, from a dramatic 45-minute opening to a full two-hour stage show to a full evening of post-dinner dancing and everything in between.
