- The Magpie Salute consists of former members of world renowned band The Black Crowes. The Magpie Salute will tour Europe extensively through the Summer and Fall of 2018. A second album (High Water) II is set to be released in 2019 [!]


Old friends pass through our lives similar to characters in a time-worn, dog-eared novel.  

As we page through life, they return to walk alongside of us on bold new adventures at all the right moments. Such is the story of The Magpie Salute. For as much as 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.

Pulled together by guitarist Rich Robinson, it continued 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.

Now, these six individuals conjure magic on their full-length debut of original material, High Water I [Mascot/Eagle Rock], for 2018 with High Water II to come in 2019.
