Join us for the FINAL EVENT at this year's Bite of Oregon, Aug 10th!

MISSION The "Road to the Bite" was developed to offer recognition and support to the region’s emerging singer/songwriters. By exposing performers to feedback from music industry mentors, the series encourages singer/songwriters to write great songs and deliver them powerfully. Equal attention is paid to the craft of songwriting and to the craft of live performance. Mentors assess performers on lyrics, music, technique, and performance - as well as the overall impact of the song.
