The Best Music Photography of 2013

 (Todd Owyoung)

Every year I like to do a collection of my favorite images that I've had the honor of making, and give a run down of the year overall.  From the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas to the Leeds Festival in the UK, here are some of my favorite images from 2013.
