In Conversation: Red Hot Chilli Pipers

Bagpipes With Attitude

The Red Hot Chilli Pipers have once again set the UK alight with their toe-tapping, bagpipe-powered “bagrock” sound – proving that nothing gets a crowd dancing quite like the unexpected marriage of traditional Scottish tunes and classic rock anthems!

Their 2025 UK tour, which kicked off in Peterborough and wrapped up in Ulverston, saw the band bring their unmistakable energy and infectious enthusiasm to some of the country’s most iconic venues—from the grandeur of London’s Cadogan Hall to the lively Picturedrome in Holmfirth.

Just ahead of their sold-out appearance at Warrington’s Parr Hall, the group caught up with Rob McGowan on the Drivetime show.  You can listen again right here.
