Podcast Audio Interview: Robin McAuley
[Apple iTunes] [Anchor] [Stitcher] [TuneIn] [Google Podcasts] [Podchaser]Robin McAuley (McAuley Schenker Group, Black Swan, Survivor, Raiding the Rock Vault) is one of the best Hard Rock and Metal vocalists ever to have stepped behind a microphone. If you were listening to Hard Rock in the 80s, you probably know Robin best as the voice of the McAuley Schenker Group, MSG, with his frequent partner, guitarist Michael Schenker. Younger fans of the genre may only know Robin McAuley from his more recent work fronting the supergroup Black Swan with Reb Beach, Jeff Pilson, and Matt Star, or as one of many vocalists in the star-studded, long-running Las Vegas jukebox mega concert, Raiding the Rock Vault.
Pariah Burke recently spoke with Robin about Raiding the Rock Vault, the status of the second Black Swan album Reb Beach had recently told Pariah was being written, Robin’s advice to new singers, Robin’s brand new solo album, Standing on the Edge—his first in more than 20 years–and more!
