The Magpie Salute - Rich Robinson is back!!!

August 10th 2018

London, Oslo Hackney, UK

Rock 'n' Roll Folk legends The Magpie Salute are coming to the UK

The Magpie Salute will be playing a special intimate four piece performance at Oslo, Hackney to celebrate the release of their debut studio album ‘High Water I’ on 10 August, the day of the album release via Provogue / Mascot Label Group. Pulled together by guitarist Rich Robinson, it continues a storyline he began in the Black Crowes with guitarist Marc Ford and bassist Sven Pipien. Meanwhile, vocalist John Hogg shared Hookah Brown with Robinson as keyboardist Matt Slocum and drummer Joe Magistro both joined him for solo records and tours over the years.

The group represents a musical union of swaggering Rock ‘n’ Roll, Psychedelic Blues and campfire worthy storytelling, it also marks a reunion of musicians whose paths twisted and turned right back to each other. Now these six individuals conjure magic on their full length debut of original material, 'High Water I' will come out on Mascot / Eagle Rock on August 10th 2018 with 'High Water II' to come in 2019.

The Magpie Salute first took flight in 2016 when Robinson assembled the original ten piece incarnation for a now seminal Woodstock gig. The group went on to SELL OUT!!! four consecutive nights at The Gramercy in January 2017. By the top of 2018, the band delivered a total of seventy seven seismic sets worldwide comprised of a one hundred and seventy song repertoire of covers, Crowes’ tunes, and solo material. They unveiled their debut 'The Magpie Salute (Live)', topped off by one original 'Omission'. By the time they retreated to Dark Horse Studios in Nashville with Robinson in the producer’s chair, the vision crystallized with the six person lineup.
