A College Area couple is bringing joy to neighbors through curbside concerts, but this isn't a regular band.
Kurt Hoeger's love of bagpipes spans forty years, which is longer than he's been married to his wife, Jean. Luckily they met through the band.
In March, Hoeger said his wife, "came out to the garage and said 'Something's wrong with my reed.' So I said okay let me hear it, and I got on and I tuned it. So we were standing out here playing and we had a few people come out and watch us and listen to us."
That impromptu performance sparked what they now dub "curbside concerts."
First, they held concerts in their own neighborhood, then they started getting requests.
"We've been down to South Park, Kensington. We were down at Tierrasanta for my sister-in-law. We went down to Allied Gardens," Hoeger says. They even got a request to play at a woman's 91st drive by birthday party.
