North to Shore Showcases Asbury Park’s Local Music Scene

The North to Shore Festival offered a glimpse into Asbury Park’s diverse and talented local music scene with its Showcase Stage in the Grand Arcade of the historic Convention Hall. The majority of the artists featured were selected through a competitive application process by Asbury Park arts and culture leaders. The show was hosted by local poet and hip hop artist Chris Rockwell, and featured Des and the Swagmatics, The Mercury Brothers, Space and the Goodstock Jamband, Jake Thistle, Joe Miller, Dave Vargo, Mike Montrey Band, Myster-E Edutainment, and Johnny Nameless.

Michael Campanile

Michael is an Asbury Park based photographer of what life puts in front of him. He snuck his camera into a concert for the first time in 2011 when he went to see Soundgarden on their reunion tour. Two of those shots ended up being published in Photofantasm Soundgarden: Nudedragons to King Animal, and he has been bringing his cameras to shows ever since. He relocated to Asbury in 2019 for its rich music and art scenes...and to save on tolls! He is a big supporter of the local music scene and has become well known amongst the bands for his photos. Michael is also a regular vendor at the Asbury Park Punk Rock Flea Market and can be found selling his prints at a variety of local markets.
