The Alberta Caledonia Pipe Band was a competitive grade 1 pipe band based out of Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.[1]

History

The group was originally established in Edmonton in 1982, as the Grade 1 Edmonton Caledonia Pipe Band.[2][3] The band's name was changed in the mid 1990s, after it received a large influx of players from Calgary; the band was then based out of both cities.

In 2000, they began attending the annual World Pipe Band Championships and, in 2001, placed 7th in the grade 1 finals.[4] The group was one of the top competitive pipe bands in both Canada and the world.

The band recorded two CDs, They Took Their Leave[5] in 1998 and Another Round in 2005.[6]

In 2013, key members of the pipe section leave to pursue their careers elsewhere and the band decided to fold as it was not able to field a competition band at the Grade 1 level.

The Edmonton group of players came back together in 2015 to start the new grade 2 local band North Stratton Pipe Band.[7] The Calgary players joined the Grade 2 Rocky Mountain Pipe Band.[8]
