The Magpie Salute is an American rock band formed in 2016 by The Black Crowes guitarist Rich Robinson. The band also includes former Black Crowes members Marc Ford and Sven Pipien as well as Rich Robinson band members Matt Slocum and Joe Magistro.
History[edit]
- Rich Robinson to Guitar World Other influences include Furry Lewis, The Rolling Stones, Muddy Waters and Jimmy Reed Fun Facts At 15, Robinson formed The Black Crowes in 1984 with his brother Chris while the two were still students at Walton High School in Marietta, Ga.
- Joel Osteen is a best-selling author and the senior pastor of Lakewood Church, the largest Protestant church in America, based in Houston, TX.
Rich Robinson announced the formation of the Magpie Salute in October 2016. In addition to Robinson, the group features former Black Crowes guitarist Marc Ford and bassist Sven Pipien, as well as keyboardists Matt Slocum, drummer Joe Magistro, and vocalists Adrien Reju and Katrine Ottosen from Robinson's solo band. This announcement came on the heels of a series of shows Robinson performed earlier in 2016 in Woodstock, New York where he was joined by Ford, Pipien and former Black Crowes keyboard player Eddie Harsch.[2] Harsch was slated to tour as a member of the band until his sudden death in November 2016, and his appearance on their self-titled debut marks his last recording.[3]
They performed their first concerts in January 2017 at the Gramercy Theatre in New York City. They were originally only scheduled to perform three concerts, but added a fourth show due to demand.[4] They performed songs from the Black Crowes as well as Robinson and Ford's solo careers. The band then played a series of gigs in Europe in June and July 2017 before kicking off a 60 date US tour that included stops in San Francisco, Las Vegas and Morrison, Colorado (Red Rocks Amphitheater) and two nights at the Irving Plaza in New York. All attendees of the November 15 or 16 Irving Plaza shows received a limited edition live album featuring performances from throughout 2017.[5]
The Magpie Salute released their debut studio album High Water I on August 10, 2018.[1] The album debuted at #3 on Billboard's Heatseekers Chart, and #33 on the Top Album Sales chart.[6] The band kicked off their 2018 tour, on July 1, at The Village at Copper Mountain in Colorado.[7]
The band's second studio album High Water II was released October 11, 2019,[8]and debuted at #65 on the Billboard 200. Rating it four out of five stars for American Songwriter, critic Luke Levenson commented, 'High Water II has a consistent quality, never veering too far off the boys' true sonic course, which starts and ends with the blues.'[9]
