Bio
Named for a bird that chatters and improvises, Dr. Magpie is composed of six string instrument players, who've come together to create a sound that draws equally from Appalachia, New York (both uptown and downtown), and the freewheeling Left Bank of prewar Paris. It includes two fiddles, two guitars, mandolin, and bass.
The members of the band have toured extensively with established artists and at the helms of their own bands, playing roots, pop, jazz, country, bluegrass, Celtic, and a dozen other musical styles besides.
Dr Magpie is one of its kind. An eclectic repertoire presented in this highly unique sound and capacity.
