Our project
backbeat
a steady pronounced rhythm stressing the second and fourth beats of a four-beat measure
Backbeat magazine is an independently owned magazine focused on delivering honest, insightful and evocative pieces to do with everything music. We go behind the scenes covering stories from small to large— every cog is relevant and important, from those attempting to win over dive bar crowds to those playing in sold out stadiums to tens of thousands of chanting fans. Everyone starts somewhere and being independently owned we are more than familiar with that grind. At its core we focus on the many moving parts of the scene and he community that comes with it, aka the backbeat.
Backbeat Magazine was co-founded in November of 2025 and officially launched in late January of 2026. Our team is based all around the globe, offering unique point of views and giving our magazine a global reach.
