Whole Lotta Talk: Interviews, die rocken!
09: Rich Robinson - The Magpie Salute
With "High Water I", US-American rockers THE MAGPIE SALUTE release their first studio album on August 10. We met guitarist and mastermind Rich Robinson and talked about why they released a live album way before their first studio record, why there's less people on the album cover than who’re actually in the band, about their past and troubled times with The Black Crowes and Rich's brother Chris and more. Enjoy!

Nick Wheeler / THE ALL AMERICAN REJECTS
After 14 album-less years that felt like forever, The All-American Rejects are back in full force. Their brand-new record “Sandbox” shines with a sun-drenched surf-rock vibe and tells the story of a band growing up – the same band that crashed into our hearts in the 2000s with cheeky pop-punk anthems. In our interview, guitarist Nick Wheeler reveals just how grown-up the band really is now, what finally pushed them back into the studio after more than a decade, and whether we might even get to look forward to a house party with The All-American Rejects in our own neighborhood sometime soon.
