Electro Pipes light up Camera Obscura

The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo Performers – Electro Pipes – take time out from performing for Tattoo crowds to experience the colour, lights, and symmetry at Camera Obscura.

A fresh addition to the Show line-up this year, the Electro Pipes blend the traditional instrument of the bagpipe with modern, electronic music, mixed with state-of-the-art projection and lighting.

Making up the new generation Tattoo super-group, Pipers Cammy Barnes, Alisdair McLaren and Lynsey McNicholl are joined by Tattoo Fiddlers and a DJ. Each night on the Edinburgh Castle Esplanade they perform a crowd-pleasing track by The Sidh called “Shake that Bagpipe”.

Running until 27 August, The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is a celebration of expression. Voices draws inspiration from people across the globe who, despite physical separation, continue to connect and share their voices creatively through spoken word, song, music, and dance – languages common to all.  

Tickets are still available and can be purchased at edintattoo.co.uk/tickets or on the phone on 0131 225 1188. 

Electro Pipes were photographed in Camera Obscura & World of Illusions, Edinburgh.
