Each of our Pipe Majors (P/M) and Band Mentors has
helped us to grow and develop
|
Ed Sowers, P/M, started us from scratch. His
engineering and musical experience helped us to organize and enabled us to perform as a group.
|
|
Kevin M. Brown,
of Harrisburg, taught a number of our pipers, mentored the band, wrote
the Band's signature tune "By the Banks of the Quittapahilla" and
performed with us occasionally. Kevin was a major influence in
the development of our band. Kevin is now P/M of the John F. Nicoll
Pipe Band of Towson, Md. |
 |
Tom Thomson, with his
outstanding piping and military bearing from his experience in the Black
Watch
in Scotland, contributed most to our present musical and marching style and
military appearance.
|
 |
Steve Hollinger, our P/M, with his US Marine Corps
Band experience is very successfully continuing the band's long-term improvement and growth.
|
 |
We have had outstanding help from Andy White,
instructor, judge and performer, in the development of our drum line. He
has come to Annville several times for weekend seminars with our drummers. |
