Cross Creek Pipes and Drums was founded in 1984 in Fayetteville, North Carolina by Bob Palmer and has continued for 40 years with the hard work of dedicated volunteers from throughout the Cape Fear region. The band is comprised of people interested in learning, performing, and promoting the traditional and contemporary music for the Great Highland Bagpipe and Scottish Regimental Drums.

The Cross Creek Pipes and Drums are available to provide educational and entertaining performances for regional events. The band offers piping and drumming instruction to anyone interested and actively seeks new members to continue the Pipe Band tradition.
