Biography
These four men are a creative collective of musicians and songwriters, playing together for nearly 12 years. With performances up and down the Eastern United States, including Caesar's Palace, their high energy live performances are the stuff of minor legend. Influences are wide and varied; The Beatles, 70’s Elvis, Beach Boys, Prince, Pavement, The Queers, Oasis/Blur, Wilco, Weezer, Nerf Herder and The Strokes. After playing together for so long, live show is honed to fine point as well as having vast experience in the professional recording environment. The story of Camp Arawak goes back to a dozen years ago;  A group of artists together searching for a sound that has its roots based in rock and roll/pop music. After being on hiatus with other projects, the members have reformed to record a new album, tour and continue to entertain their legions of “Campers” worldwide.

There is "Love" in this music infused with a Punk ethos based in pure quirkiness. Camp Arawak feels like an experiment/dissection of familiar ideas, forms and notes pasted back together to create something completely different. No judgments and no egos, Camp Arawak members agree to always disagree
