The Saint is a music venue located in Asbury Park, New Jersey, United States.[1][2][3] It is reminiscent of places like The Cellar Door in Washington, DC, CBGB, CB's 313 Gallery, and The Living Room in New York City, and features live, original music.[4][5][6][7] The Saint was founded by Adam Jon Weisberg along with business partner Scott Stamper, and opened its doors on November 18, 1994.[8][9] Stamper bought out Weisberg in 2013 and became the sole owner.[8][10][11][12] He is also a co-founder (along with Weisberg and Gordon Brown) of the Wave Gathering Music Festival.[13]
