Bad Haggis is a band based in the United States and led by piper Eric Rigler. A tune by Bad Haggis was used in the first season of Crossing Jordan, and pipes and whistles played by Eric Rigler are still heard regularly on the show.
Eric Rigler has played bagpipes on several movies and has been described as "the world's most recorded piper".[1] He also played the pipes at former President Ronald Reagan's memorial service.
