The 2007 and 2008 seasons have proven to be integral in the band's current attention in the piping community; after losing much of the pipe corps and regaining old players in '07 the band competed with an innovative and non-traditional medley titled "Variations on a Theme of Good Intentions" which went against the traditional medley composition as the players performed a suite of a theme rather than separate tunes. The set was composed for pipes by Michael Grey, the band's Pipe Sergeant. The band competed with a different medley in the 2009 season, titled "Idiomatica", and presented yet another in 2010, titled "Gallus No. 3"; both, again, composed by Mr. Grey.

The band's Pipe Major is Sean McKeown. The lead drummer is Craig Stewart.
