Stand Easy
Stand Easy is a Bagpipe Rock band led by John McLean Allan, an award-winning bagpiper, singer/songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. John has appeared playing bagpipes in numerous feature films and television shows, including the Oscar-winning Best Picture, Million Dollar Baby, Austin Powers 2, West Wing, and Primary Colors, among many others.
​
Stand Easy came together to share in John's vision of creating a landmark fusion of commercial songwriting, Celtic music, and rock & roll. Stand Easy performs original songs, traditional songs and bagpipe/rock instrumentals. They have performed at many prestigious Celtic festivals in the Western United States, Canada and Alaska and innumerable nightclubs and pubs.
​
Stand Easy's original songs are in the rock style but incorporate bagpipe jigs and reels from the traditional Celtic style.
