About Dark Isle Bagpiper

Dark Isle Bagpiper (@darkislebagpiper) is a U.S. channel run by a professional Highland piper in Southern California. It posts bagpipe performances, tune stories, maintenance tips and military and veteran tributes, usually in clips of one to three minutes filmed at scenic or ceremonial locations. The channel has 80,800 subscribers.

The channel description lists performance work for the Starz series Outlander and Sony Pictures, and offers online lessons and piper-for-hire bookings. Recent uploads are infrequent, three in the past year, and the median video draws about 5,000 views, with occasional outliers such as a Memorial Day video near 1.3 million. Viewers likely skew older and music or heritage focused, though this is an estimate.

No sponsorships appear in recent videos. Because the median falls below the pricing floor, Starbooked estimates $150 to $250 per sponsored video, which works out to a higher CPM than the $20 to $35 range and well above the $10 to $30 typical of paid ads. Best for music, heritage and seasonal brands.
