A Scottish piper will appear on BBC's Dragon's Den next week to sell his innovative product said to benefit the hygiene and health of musicians.
Robbie MacIssac, who is the managing director of FLUX and a piper with Scottish Power Pipe Band, announced the exciting news on his social media. The young Scot wrote: "The Secret is Out! Watch me appear on BBC Dragons’ Den, Thursday 2nd February at 8pm!!
"I can’t say much more, so make sure you tune in to discover what the Dragons thought about Bagpipe innovation with FLUX."

Robbie will be pitching a FLUX Blowpipe, which attaches to the top of the bagpipes and allows the musician to breathe air into the bag to inflate it - and play. This blowpipe is set aside to other brands as it is "hygienic, controls moisture, and promotes airflow."
According to the FLUX website, the blowpipe is: "Backed by science to remove problems previously faced with the bagpipe with our bagpipe moisture control system.
"The FLUX Blowpipe is universal to every Bagpipe and is compatible with both natural and synthetic bags, thus does not require a zipper-bag or inner tube for use.
"The FLUX Blowpipe drastically prolongs the lifespan of the instrument before moisture takes effect.
"The FLUX Blowpipe works by stimulating the condensation of moisture within the Blowpipe, and harnessing the condensed moisture through a difference in pressure in an absorption chamber."
To find out more about this invention, and see Robbie attempt to convince the Dragon's, tune into the episode of Dragon's Den on Thursday, February 2 at 8pm on BBC One.
