Another major title for Louis with New Ross Pipe Band
'Louis has been consistently winning prizes in the juvenile grades and has won every major title on numerous occasions, including twice World Champion. This is Louis' first year competing in the adult grade, which is a fantastic achievement to have reached third place in the All Ireland Championships on his first year amongst the adult drum majors,' said Brian Mac Mahon, director with the band.
'We are so proud of Louis,' he added.
It doesn't stop there for the talented Louis as he travels to the UK Championships in Edinburgh next Saturday, and after that, he's off to South Africa for an exhibition with the wonderfully talented Armagh Drum Majors under the tutelage of the maestro Brian Wilson.
Louis will be leading the massed pipe band parade of the Irish Pipe Band Association on the first day of the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Wexford on Sunday, August 3 at 3 p.m. and he'll also be performing with the New Ross and District Pipe Band in the Library Park on Saturday, August 23 at 7.30 p.m.. Admission for the Library Park concert is free of charge.
