Matthew Wright, Staff Photographer:

 

 

I am severely addicted to music and photography.  Combining the two has become a passion of mine for over a decade; even since the days of FILM (you’ll probably need to google that word).  Music photography has taken me on quite an adventure.  I have traveled thousand of miles, been on stage, backstage, and even on a tour bus or few.  I cannot wait to see where it will take me next.  Though I am terrified that it will take me to places where there are no Publix…
