Magic Pie is a Norwegian progressive rock band formed between 2001 and 2002 by a group of experienced musicians from the cities of Moss and Fredrikstad in the southeastern county of Østfold. The band quickly became known for its blend of classic symphonic progressive rock and 1970s‑inspired hard rock, drawing on influences such as Dream Theater, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Kansas, Deep Purple and Yes. Magic Pie has since developed a strong international following within the progressive rock community, recognized for their long‑form compositions, multi‑vocal arrangements and a sound that pays homage to the classic prog era while maintaining a distinct identity. Magic Pie originated when six musicians from the Østfold region began collaborating in the early 2000s. The founding line‑up included: Kim Stenberg – guitars, Gilbert Marshall – keyboards, vocals, Eirikur Hauksson / Eirick Hanssen – lead vocals, Lars Petter Holstad – bass, Jan T. Johannessen – drums, Allan Olsen – vocals. In their earliest phase, the band performed covers of well‑known progressive rock acts, gradually incorporating their own increasingly complex material into live performances. These compositions eventually formed the basis of their debut album.
