Alastair Lee hits right chord at Coquitlam

Alastair Lee on guitar at another event.

Coquitlam, British Columbia – June 18, 2016 – It was a one-band Grade 1 performance at a rainy and cool BC Highland Games & Scottish Festival, with Dowco Triumph Street unable to attend due mainly to the band’s attendance at the UK Championships at Belfast the previous week. But 116 solo contestants and 13 bands made the event with Greighlan Crossing winning the Grade 3 competition. Alastair Lee was the overall winner in the Open Solo Piping. The Open Snare Drumming aggregate was won by Grant Maxwell, and Zephan Knichel won the Open Piobaireachd, held the night before. At the closing ceremony, the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band performed a rendition of Leonard Cohen’s classic song “Hallelujah” accompanied by pipers Zachary Read on vocals and keyboard and Lee on guitar.
