New Music: A Camp - "My America"

*MP3: A Camp - "My America"

Malmo, Sweden by way of New York pop trio A Camp have been in my head a lot lately. They're on a strange mess of record labels (Universal-Sweden, Nettwerk-US, Reveal/PIAS-UK&EU) and it looks like they may be hitting the states this Summer. "My America" is a great summation of their sound: catchy, fun and soulful.
