About This Archive

Chris Sidoruk Media is the documentation project of Chris Sidoruk, a Connecticut-based concert photographer and archivist. Since 2018, I’ve been shooting everything from high-energy festivals to small club sets, theater shows, and tours — always with the same goal: to preserve the feeling of live performance.

This site exists as a long-term archive — a way to honor the people, spaces, and sounds that shape our music scenes. Whether you're flipping through it for nostalgia, research, inspiration, or pure curiosity, my hope is that you’ll see more than just photos. You'll see history, passion, sweat, and sound.

What I Document

  • Live concerts and touring acts

  • Local Connecticut and music events

  • Music festivals and cultural gatherings

  • Behind-the-scenes energy and unfiltered crowd moments

Every photo tells the story of a night worth remembering.

Why It Matters

In an age of short attention spans and disappearing posts, I believe in the power of keeping records — not just for today, but for future fans, artists, and historians.

What began as a passion has evolved into a mission: to archive the movement. One show at a time. One frame at a time.
