About the Band

Chicago Celtic Pipe Band is based in the Chicago area of Illinois, USA. It was founded in 1997 by Jim Enright Sr., together with his daughter, sons and close friends who had played in local pipe bands for many years. The band was created to bring Celtic music, celebrating both Irish and Scottish culture, to weddings, festivals, parades, family gatherings and community events.

The band began competing in Grade 4 as a member of the Midwest Pipe Band Association and later progressed to Grade 3. Its competition record includes titles such as U.S. Open Champions and Midwest Champion Supreme, along with prizes at contests across the Midwestern United States and Ontario, Canada.

In 2018, the organisation formed a Grade 5 development group named the Jim Enright Sr. Memorial Pipe Band, honouring its founder and helping newer pipers and drummers progress. Today, Chicago Celtic continues as both a performance and competition band, supporting Celtic music and player development in the Chicago region.
