Booking process and forms of payment

After we confirm availability and price, Piper Jonas will send an invoice. Payment in full is due at booking if the performance is less than 14 calendar days from your first inquiry. Performances 14 days or more from your first inquiry may be eligible to reserve the date with a non-refundable reservation deposit ($100 for quotes up to $350, or 30% of the total quote, rounded to the nearest $5, above $350), with the remaining balance due on or before the performance date. Payment methods include card, ACH, PayPal, Venmo, check, and Bitcoin. Cash is accepted for in-person lessons only. See reservation deposits and payment options and the Universal Service Agreement.

Ensemble performances

Given enough notice and based on availability, a small ensemble can be formed for an event. This could range from a couple pipers to a 'mini-band' of pipers and drummers. Feel free to bring this up in the consultation if you're interested in additional players.

Bagpipe tuning

As Piper Jonas performs frequently, tuning remains fairly consistent and allowing the pipes to be warmed-up and tuned within 10-15 minutes. Once tuned, the bagpipes should maintain their sound for a considerable time - however weather and environment conditions may require the pipes to be re-tuned.

While willing to travel, please note that locations outside of 20 miles from Brentwood may incur an additional fee. Piper Jonas typically serves cities within the following Tennessee counties: Williamson, Davidson, Rutherford, Marshall, and Maury.
