I recently had the pleasure of traveling to St. Augustine, where I spent some invaluable time working with Iain McWilliam and his band, the City of St. Augustine Pipe Band. It was an incredible experience to collaborate with such a dedicated group of musicians, and I truly enjoyed helping them take their performance to the next level.
The band had some wonderful feedback about our time together:
"To say our time working with Adrian Melvin was amazing would be an understatement! From setting up each player individually, as we move to Melvin Reeds, to unique ways to view and demystify phrasing of tunes, instrument maintenance, working with the drum corps to improve overall ensemble, and even helping our players improve their posture for more consistent tone! The knowledge and guidance Adrian shared was invaluable and definitely made an impact with every member of the band! We can’t say enough about our time with Adrian and can’t wait to get him back to St. Augustine soon, as we move to the Mac-A pipe band chanter!"
Throughout our time together, we worked on tailored action plans designed to optimize both their music and pipe setup. My goal was to help them get the most out of their players and ensure that each member was set up for success. The band responded with great enthusiasm, and it was inspiring to see their commitment to honing their craft.
One of the things I love most about this work is guiding and supporting bands on their journey to improvement. Whether it’s through fine-tuning their instrument setup or developing a structured approach to their practice, I take pride in helping bands unlock their full potential.
If you're interested in having me work with your band, I’m available to offer workshops and provide guidance tailored to your group’s unique needs. I look forward to helping more bands elevate their playing and make the most of their musical journey.
