Overview
Red Bank is a bohemian-style town in Monmouth County, NJ, often called the Garden State's answer to Greenwich Village. The town gained fame as the home of legendary big band leader Count Basie and remains the stomping ground of celebrities Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, and filmmaker Kevin Smith (several of his movies, including Chasing Amy, are set here).
