Professional background

While attending high school in Huntington Station, New York, Campbell joined Long Island punk band Latterman, led by classmates Phil Douglas and Matt Canino. He recorded and performed as a guitarist in Latterman until shortly before they disbanded in 2007.[1]
After almost four years apart, Latterman announced plans to reunite, with Campbell on guitar, for a series of concerts in December 2011.[2]
- Laura Stevenson and the Cans
In the summer of 2007, just after leaving Latterman, Campbell met Laura Stevenson, and began performing as the bass player for The Cans.[3] Stevenson has credited Campbell as the inspiration for one of her earliest songs, "A Shine to It", and also has cited him as the one who encouraged her to record her first album, A Record.[4]
