Charlie Steady – Magpie (The Adventures of a Musical Monomyth)

Charlie Steady’s new album, Magpie (The Adventures of a Musical Monomyth), lands July 25, 2025, and it’s a massive 27-track double album that opens up an entire world. The record follows Magpie, a dreamer navigating The Big City, but you don’t need to know every part of the story to get pulled in. Charlie blends indie rock, RnB, jazz, electronica, and pop in a way that makes you want to play all 27 tracks.

Tracks like “Magpie”, “Greyhound”, “The Big City”, and “I Want a Biographer” give the album a dynamic pulse, sometimes intimate, sometimes larger than life. His vocals are confident and expressive, shifting with the tone of each song in a way that keeps you connected to the character and the emotion behind it, it’s just impressive and I’m excited to share it with you. You can hear the theatrical nods to Bowie and the lush detail reminiscent of Brian Wilson, but it’s still very much Charlie Steady’s own approach. The narrative gives it focus, and the variety in style keeps it fresh. It’s an album you’ll want to sit with, because there’s a lot to catch in both the story and the sound.
