The Bites

Bringing the essence of 1980s hard rock and hair metal into the present decade, the Hollywood-based rock outfit the Bites delivers anthemic choruses, heavy riffs, and an exuberant outlook. Social media sensation Jordan Tyler fronts the group; after his classic rock covers gained explosive traction online, he recognized the need to form a band. He recruited L.A. producer and drummer Mark Hylander, guitarists Dustin Coon and Jono Richer, and bassist Zack Currier to round out the roster. The members quickly compiled a strong batch of material and hit the road for a 2023 tour. Having won over crowds throughout the U.S. and U.K., the band attracted Earache Records, which issued their debut album, Squeeze, in 2023.
