Maintaining a friendship and a working relationship with someone for a decade isn't always commonplace. Being a creative isn't always as black & white as working a 9-5 job. It's a culmination of swelling and recessing emotions and expectations. @stephencareycountry played in various pop-punk bands in Jacksonville, FL for years until finally relocating to Nashville in 2014. I remember standing outside of a bar on a cool winter evening in Nashville listening to him talk about his goals, hopes, and fears for Nashville over the next few years. 🎙️ - Stephen's first single "Summer Cool" has crested 3,000,000 streams on @spotify in just a few short months. He has been featured in Rolling Stone this year as well. 🙌🏻 - Stephen Carey just released a new song today (09.21.18) and you'll wanna go have a listen! Be sure to follow him on FB and IG. 🎧 . . . . . #nashville #newmusicfriday #canon #wrecksme #stephencarey #danielshippey #pose #music #countrymusic #spotify #paulcbuff #canonphotography #portsmagazine #portrait #summercool #leatherjacket #portraitmood #studio #studiolighting #nashvillephotographer #liveauthentic #canonphotography #sxmthehighway #black #perspective #discoverportrait #newmusic #country #thecadillacthree #portraitatlas (at Nashville, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn_wfNcglds/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f9it1dr6bigt
