Middletown, Connecticut, United States
About the band
Performances by the Middletown Police Benefit Association Bagpipes & Drums Band at community parades and ceremonial events.
Join our 503c non-profit initiative where we champion community engagement and support for local law enforcement through the spirited sound of Celtic, Scots, and Irish bagpipe music. Enter into a world where tradition enhances law enforcement relations, promoting respect and unity. Celebrate our shared heritage and contribute to a stronger, more connected community.
The Middletown Police Benefit Association Bagpipe Band was formed in July 2012 by a handful of active and retired Middletown Police officers. Not one of the officers knew how to play a bagpipe and most had no musical experience. Since that humble beginning, the Bagpipe Band has been able to grow in its size and musical ability, it has added non-police members and continues to grow.
The band is here to perform ceremonial functions for public safety services and represent the public safety services at other public ceremonies. The bagpipe band does not engage in bagpipe competitions as a group but holds itself to competition-level training and playing expectations. Since our founding, we’ve honored many of our fallen brothers and sisters in arms, and played numerous events around Connecticut, including the Hartford, Mystic & Middletown St Patrick’s Parades.
