Self-taught 7-yr-old shocks family with bagpipe skills

Every little boy wants to be like his dad. But when Luke Stewart tried to copy his dad's new bagpiping hobby, no one expected he'd be this good at it.

He's not making a statement. He's a kid enjoying what he loves.

Wife: “None of us is musical in the family”
Piper dad: “Gee thanks”

I absolutely love to see a kid his age doing something like this. The pipes are a very demanding instrument, to say the least. Good on you, kid!

[cassandramitch]

Wow! This kid sounds wonderful playing the bagpipes! Pipe on kid! Self taught too, that's truly awesome!

[HighOnLife]

You my man are the luckiest father ever. Hopefully he follows in your footsteps becoming a firefighter himself, and even if not, he's got the heart of gold and the courage of a lion already. Best of luck to you both.

Very talented lad. Do your family proud. Do Scotland and Ireland proud. You will always have a fan here.

[liamworthington]

I was 14 when I started...that was 20 beautiful years ago...still playing...love it.

[irisclay]

It would be nice if they actually played a clip of him playing a song.

[vickystanley]

That little guy is really good. He's got musical talent and great lung power!

WOW, great job lil man! Great job dad for being a great role model & great job all around, on being the family unit that is so much more important than most people today realize. God bless your lil clan 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸🙏

I'm impressed. I asked my aunt and uncle to get me some highland bagpipes for my birthday this coming February. I have Scottish and Irish and accessory in my blood. My ancestor is John Knox and the other one is Henry Knox, the first secretary of war in the general of the artillery during the revolutionary war

I don't know why, but the sound of a bagpipe warms my heart.

[therabbithole-snyb]

Way to go lil man!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I know your dad is extremely proud of you, heck I'm proud of you & I don't even know you... & Dad your doing a great job too, I know it feels great to be his hero. God bless y'all & keep on piping...🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

[adamverdin]

There are literally thousands of child bagpipers, I'm one, my friend was taught by a man who started when he was four.

[WootTootZoot]

Get that boy to an instructor, there's talent that needs to be harnessed and refined.

[cheeseburger]

Aye, I do love it when I see young lads on the pipes.

[alyssaashley]

Frikk yeah! He’s got Stewart blood running through his veins! ☺️

[eddiehenrik]

Good lad. Keep it up. When you're older, chicks love the pipes!!!

[stumpernfurfortgeschritten]

I'm extremely happy the see that he plays crosshanded because I learned this way on the practice chanter by mistake and now I know that I can play like this. 👍

[WillMellon]

I was 9 when I started. Now I'm 73 and still playing. This kid will be a wiz in his teens.
