“The goal of each year’s fest is to showcase the talented bands and amazing people that create and support meaningful art right in our backyard,” says co-founder Neil Sabatino of Mint 400 Records. “Plus, it’s a great way to bring the local music community together.”

“If guitar rock is dead, I’m afraid New Jersey didn’t get the memo. The scenes and bands coming out of Asbury Park, Montclair, Jersey City, and all the surrounding areas have never been more vibrant”, says co-founder Frank DeFranco. “We’re really excited that we get to do this another year.”
