Have you heard the bagpipes in Ranchlands? They have warmed the hearts of many of us. Meet Rob MacLeod, Ranchlands’ Resident Piper who can be seen and heard walking along the sidewalks in our community. It is just delightful!

Rob and his wife moved into Ranchlands this summer and are settling into life in Northwest Calgary. Rob is an engineer, and his wife is a teacher. While Rob enjoys technical discussions and Excel spreadsheets, he is musically fulfilled playing the bagpipes. He plays with the Cochrane Pipe Band and performs at private gigs, such as birthdays, weddings, retirement parties, funerals, company events, and church functions. His playlist ranges from traditional Scottish tunes to the Star Wars theme song. Oh, and of course Baby Shark which is always a hit with the neighbourhood kids….and secretly with some of the adults.

Rob’s piping career has spanned twenty years, and he looks forward to performing bagpipe tunes for many years to come.
