The Bites Biography
Primed to drop jaws with their monster hybrid of breathtaking garage rock rhythms, gargantuan choruses, unashamedly retro style and, above all, their dedication to making every live show an undeniable excuse to party, The Bites’ debut album 'Squeeze' is out now.
'Squeeze' resurrects the style, hop and swagger of early rock'n'roll, displaying the no-nonsense attitude of The Hives and the sheer recklessness of Mötley Crüe. Fans of new rockers Greta Van Fleet, Dirty Honey and The Struts will also delight in the emergence of The Bites.
Having watched his profile on TikTok (@jordantylerbites) blow up, with over 2.2 million likes amassed on his music-obsessing 'Toks and classic rock covers, Jordan felt compelled to follow his true passion of creating original music and so he founded The Bites with LA drummer, producer extraordinaire and long-time friend Mark Hylander. The duo are joined by lightning-fast guitarists Jono Richer, Dustin Coon and bass champion Zack Currier. With 2024 seeing US tours with Sebastian Bach and The 69 Eyes, as well as their second UK tour with The Dead Daisies, The Bites are working to electrify audiences with their head-turning rock show across the world.
Putting this record, ‘Squeeze', together, I really wanted to create something timeless. The stigma of “rock is dead” has been so blown out of proportion. All the music we grew up with from the rock legends of the 60s, 70s and 80s, we’ve heard over and over again to the point where it’s become a part of us. We want to give fans something special with 'Squeeze', when you hear this album in full, for the first time, hopefully it'll give you the excitement and joy of albums that you've been listening to for decades. It’s gonna get in your bones, baby!” Jordan testifies.
“We built this band on authenticity. Everything we do, from the songs, to the stage, to the way we dress, is just genuinely who we are and how we operate. We don't have to try or go out of our way to be rock and roll, we just do what we do and the end result is vicious."
