The Sons of Scotland, formed in 1896 by D.L. McLean, is Canada’s oldest civilian pipe band. James Anderson led the band in the early 1900s. The band played in Ottawa for the first time in 1896 in celebration of the death of Robert Burns. It was in fact the first pipe band to be heard in the nation’s capital. Unfortunately, little is known about the band’s early activities.
