Star of the Sea Pipe Band , Annagry , Co. Donegal
The Star of the Sea Pipe Band from Anagary , Co. Donegal is one of the newest pipe
bands in the IPBA .The band wears the McNeill of Barra Tartan with a Green Tweed
Jacket .
Under Pipe Major Kenneth Martin and Drum Sergeant Thomas Martin the band has only
been on the road since 1992 . The band was founded by Brian McCafferty , who learned
to play pipes with the St. Francis Pipe Band in Glasgow , Thomas Martin ( Senior)
and Kenneth Martin . The band is situated in a particularly remote part of Ireland and
find it difficult to get instruction at times . Notwithstanding that particular problem
, they have already had a taste of competition having competed at the Ulster Championships this year and at the North West Mini Bands .
The band's main priority at the moment is to improve its overall performance through
continuous hard work . We wish all concerned the very best of luck in their endeavours
.
