Ally the Piper, also known as Piper.Ally, is a musician and content creator who has gained a significant following of nearly 5 million followers on various social media platforms. She is a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist, but is best known for her work on the Great Highland Bagpipe. She is particularly recognized for challenging traditional perceptions of the bagpipe, and for her ability to take the centuries-old instrument and make it relevant and appealing to a modern audience.
Ally began her career as a competitive bagpiper, starting off strong by winning the 2012 World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow as a member of a youth pipe band. She continued to compete solo and was consistently ranked at the top of her divisions in the Eastern United States. However, in 2019, she decided to step away from competition to focus on her music career.
Since then, Ally has been actively working to break stereotypes about the bagpipes and introduce new audiences to the instrument.
