It’s official: bite mag is heading to Hill Farm next week to give you the lowdown on emerging artists that will very soon be the talk of the town.
We can’t wait to see some familiar faces, meet new people and hear some incredible music. If you see us darting about, come and say hello! (Contrary to popular belief, we don’t bite. Wink.)
Why Truck x bite is the collab of dreams
bite mag is not a news platform; we focus on perspectives, in-depth analysis and getting into the weeds of the issues that are prevalent in artists’ journeys. We champion emerging creatives in all their glory.
Truck isn’t just a music event – it’s an independent and community-led working model of modern creative careers.
We want to highlight that.
Festivals used to be places to discover new artists – now, increasingly, they are places that confirm what audiences already know. The result is less risk and fewer opportunities for emerging acts to break through. Truck fights that notion; a big portion of the line-up is made up of brilliant artists who sit between early discovery and headline success.
We spotlight unbelievable up-and-coming talent and Truck is one of the best places for us to find it for you. And, naturally, bite is one of the best places for these artists to talk, rant, vent, chatter excitedly about how they got to where they are, and what the future looks like.
What you can expect at Truck
With an insane line-up every day, it’s looking glorious, both in weather and in acts we will be standing at the barriers to see. As well as established festival favourites filling those late-night headline slots, Truck delivers a sea of artists who are sure to soon take the top spot on your Spotify Wrapped.
What you can expect from us
Content upon content, obviously. You can look forward to interviews and features about the meaning of “independent”, the unsung heroes behind the band, why festivals matter for discovery and what happens to emerging artists when festivals become more commercial and predictable.
A hand-picked preview
In true bite fashion, we have made yet another playlist for you to sink your teeth into. Have a groove below.
