Filling the gaps between you and music
About us
The Bridge is the very latest music magazine focusing on everything to do with pop music and music pop culture, produced by The Bridge Publishing, the leading independent publisher in the UK. Our focus is on all the mainstream and established names within Pop as well as all those emerging within the industry! Each week we feature a new emerging artist in both our magazine and our website and help to expose them to a wider audience. This allows for new artists to get a head-start and garner a greater fanbase, which is increasingly more difficult and strenuous in the current age of pop. Our aim is to make sure that everyone can be involved in the emerging phenomena and can feel included in the incredible world of pop music.
Our style of Journalism allows for a more in-depth look into the world of pop music, allowing for our audiences to cross 'The Bridge' and understand the music world from the inside perspective. With exclusive interviews and inside stories, we give our audiences a greater understanding of the music industry and music culture. Our creative minds often have an eye for spotting new and upcoming trends/artists so make sure to watch out for our featured artists because you never know who'll be the next artist to blow up!
We publish stories monthly on our website and make sure to archive past stories so you're able to always get the latest deep dives and insights into pop music. We also maintain engagement on other social media platforms including our Instagram (@TheBridge) and playlists on Spotify (TheBridge) which are accessible to all and allows our audiences a taste of our music preferences.

Finn Woodings discusses how we can use music to properly connect with the world around us and how in an age of technology, we can keep our roots.
As more and more artists lean into the idea of mass-producing merchandise for their fanbase, we discuss whether it is truly sustainable or just another addition to never-ending amounts of products destined for landfill.
We go behind the scenes and reveal some details about the production of Olivia Rodrigo’s upcoming tour film.

Taylor swift
​Taylor swift continues to build momentum in the lead up to the end of the Eras tour. With the success of her 11th studio album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ in April and the highest grossing tour in history as the wind in her sails, there is no telling the limits which she can reach!
Gracie abrams
Gracie Abrams is on her way to becoming one the fastest growing artist of the year with the viral success of her latest album, ‘The Secret of Us’ and the release of a new deluxe album. An upcoming sold out tour of North America and Europe is really just the icing on the cake for the rise of this pop star!
Pop Perfection
Ariana Grande
Pop Perfection
After Ariana's comeback against the hate she received early this year with her momentous album, 'Eternal Sunshine' in March, she has continued to rise in popularity and fame with an ever-growing fanbase. Bolstered by her starring role as Glinda in Wicked which released at the end of November, she is definitely popular and quickly becoming an unstoppable force!
Charli xcx
Charli XCX dominated the world over the summer with the phenomenon of 'Brat summer' as her album became a pop culture moment which will remain iconic for decades to come. She now embarks on her UK tour revitalising the spirit of Brat and bringing it to the forefront of pop culture once more, truly stamping her place in music history!
​
Bruno Mars
Bruno Mars re-emerged onto the pop scene earlier this year with his string of collaborations with other popular artists such as Lady Gaga and Rose engaging millions. Bruno Mars was truly one of the most popular artists of the early 2010s and his return to the scene has drawn the attention of not only music enthusiasts but also casual listeners. With the combination of both Bruno and Lady Gaga at the end of this year, it is clear to say that Recession pop is back in full swing!
