## Summary
A photography and music podcast hosted by Scott Wyden Kivowitz, exploring the unique crossover between photographers who are (or were) musicians, and musicians whose careers were shaped by photographers. 

Lenses & Lyrics features conversations and solo episodes at the intersection of sound and image — from capturing bands on stage to behind-the-scenes moments, from concert pits to wedding aisles. Every frame tells a story; every story has a soundtrack.
