St Francis Pipe Band

Since being formed by the Gorbals-based Franciscans in 1926, the band has continued to bring the joy of music to adults and young people alike. It aims to keep alive the charity, goodwill, energy, and commitment of its namesake, St Francis of Assisi, in all its musical ventures.

The heart of the band is its piping and drumming tuition, which is offered free of charge by a group of enthusiasts with many decades of performance and tuition experience. We want to encourage anyone, regardless of race, religion, creed, or colour to participate in what we do.

We meet in an informal and relaxed atmosphere every Monday and Friday evening, 7pm-9pm.
