Music is powerful! It draws us together and connects people all across the globe. And while the words found in the songs we love move us on their own, there's nothing more thrilling than seeing those lyrics come to life in a live show.

This is why concerts are so electric.

Not only are you seeing the person behind the music pour their heart out on stage, but there's also a chorus of other voices singing along to every word. This feeling is transcendent, and if it's difficult to describe in words, it's downright impossible to capture in a photo. But there are some that come close.

What Makes a Photo Epic?

Have you ever seen a photo that makes you feel something? It can be joy, love, excitement, anger, sadness... anything. The emotions that are stirred up are the very thing that make a photograph special.

The best photographers know how to capture these feelings, and when it comes to live concerts, they adopt the same strategy — make people feel something. The concert photos that fall into the epic category are the ones that make you feel like you've got a front row seat to the action or the ones that put you just far enough away to depict the magnitude of the moment.

And some photos are just epic because of a natural event, like rain or wind. Others become epic because of a close encounter with something unplanned. Remember when Space X crashed one of Randy Houser's shows?
