Ian Lawther I believe lives in King County. He has a Celtic music store at www.bagpipediscs.com I had the pleasure of meeting him once.

But there are others scattered along the I-5 corridor.

Go here. There is a list of instructors. Good luck and Welcome!

Tyrone Heade lives in Seattle. I know him to be a good teacher, although he didn't teach me (as I am a drummer). He does a lot of performances, is the house piper for St. James, and is PM of Elliott Bay PB.

You can look him up, or email him at: tyroneh@eskimo.com

His website: bagpipe101.com
