The good people at NPR’s SOUNDCHECK (a show we actually listen to) were kind enough to judge A Camp worthy of their “BEST OF 2009″ show. Thanks folks! You can still link to the performance we did, back in Spring of last year, ici:

The show was a success, and the reviews are flowing in. See below for a great review from Spinner.com, and click here for some beautiful photos from TimeOutNY.com.

“With the extra hands forming a mini-orchestra of sorts, the addition of strings, horns, a flute, saxophones, piano, percussion and guitar made the night’s bill as ‘A very special evening with A Camp’ exactly that indeed.” – Spinner.com

Hello all,

A lot of activity is happening on the A Camp front…

First of all, a quick reminder that the tickets to A Very Special Evening w/A Camp at Le Poission Rouge in New York, NY (11/17) are on sale now. Tickets are going very fast so hurry to get yours before they are gone.

Back on August 18th, A Camp played our last festival of the 2009 summer season, which took place in Malmo, Sweden.  It was a lovely evening that we shared with 10-12,000 other folks.  If you were or were not there, we wnated to share these pictures with you, and to give our heartfelt thanks for the overwhelming kindness and support we’ve encountered on our travels over the last six months.

As we rest and regroup now, we will do so with satisfied minds.  We love you all and will see you very soon!

Hugs,

A Camp

Friends residing in North America,

We’re happy to tell you that as of today, our first record, the self-titled A CAMP debut album from 2000, is at long last legitimately available here in the good old US of A and Canada. Which means you can get it on Itunes and amazon.  Heretofore contractual nonsense disallowed it’s release within US borders….whatever!  Nine years on and we’re still proud of this piece of work, it was made in more innocent times (Nina and Nathan were living just below and a block south of those big ugly towers known as the World Trade Center), and details can be found elsewhere on our site.  For those who have not heard this record we hope you enjoy it……..we’re pushing to get it released on vinyl as well, we’ll keep you posted on that one.

Cheers!!!

A Camp
