Huck
Refusing to be civilised since 2006.
Huck celebrates independence: people and movements that paddle against the flow. Inspired by radical youth culture, Huck roams the globe seeking out artists, activists and creative renegades who are breaking down the old world to build something new.
Out on the countercultural frontlines, our reporters break stories before anyone else, offering a global map of youth-fuelled social change – from emerging subcultures that challenge conventions to investigative journalism that defies dominant narratives.
As a premium youth culture channel, Huck sits at the centre of a switched-on community who crave original stories and quality journalism in print, film and across the digital landscape. At 71a, our gallery in London, stories spring to life as film screenings, exhibitions, parties and events. And while the print magazine hits newsstands worldwide every two months – packed with exclusive interviews, original reportage and award-winning photojournalism– the journey never ends, continuing as it does with daily content online.
Huck is a bi-monthly magazine, website and online video channel. It has been recognized for its style of exploring subcultures as "entry points for articles about music, politics and places all over the world."[1] It is published by London-based media company TCOLondon.
Huck launched in 2006 and was initially inspired by the rebellious heritage of surf and skate. The magazine's coverage has since broadened to cover the wider world of culture. In 2006, founding editor and TCOLondon Publisher Vince Medeiros initially said of Huck's intended readership: "Our readers will be part of the tribe of surf, skate and snowboard culture, but they will be people who appreciate that there are other things in life."[3] Editor Andrea Kurland explained the magazine's ethos in 2014 as "punk, skateboarding, surfing, activism, hip-hop, outsider art, indie publishing".
In the past, Huck cover stars have occasionally co-curated the issue in which they appear, suggesting stories on people, places and moments that inspired them. Dave Eggers, Miranda July, Mark Gonzales, Kim Gordon and Cat Power are among those who have guest-edited.
Huck is available in the UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Croatia, Malta, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, New Zealand and Brazil.
