First responders in South Carolina have a unique way of honoring their heritage. A band made up of mostly fire and police personnel performs music with bagpipes and drums. This custom has its roots in the past, dating back to when many officers and firefighters had Irish and Scottish ancestry.

The band's existence is a result of one man's effort to bring this tradition to his community. He founded the group and leads it as its music selector.
