A Camp
A CampA Camp's debut album, also called A Camp, was originally recorded with Niclas Frisk of Atomic Swing, before Persson teamed up with Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse to re-record it.
In doing so he also contributed some new songs to the album.Persson had been a long-time fan of Sparklehorse and has referred to them as "the best I've ever heard".
After a gig in Lund, Sweden, Persson gave Linkous a cassette of all the demo A Camp songs.
When they met again during the recording of his most recent album, Persson mustered the courage to invite him to produce her project.
Linkous listened, liked the songs, and agreed.The debut album released the singles "I Can Buy You" and "Song for the Leftovers".
