Do you remember the excitement of your first crush? The euphoria of your first kiss? The thrill of your high school prom? The excitement of new love that makes you want to dance in the streets? Camp Crush is the music that will send those feelings rushing back.

Perhaps it is because married duo, Jen Deale and Chris Spicer clearly have a crush on each other. Sparks fly between them both on and off stage, and together they have created the infectious, modern New Wave sound that is Camp Crush. Deale and Spicer draw inspiration from the synth innovation of the 80s, utilizing vintage thick synth patches, and integrating them into themes that are relevant today. Despite taking the stage as a duo, Camp Crush is known for their wall-of-sound pop, bringing an impressively full and large sound to the stage between their front-and-center drums, heavily loaded synth patches and diva vocal stylings.

Camp Crush is based in Portland, Oregon and is currently touring, promoting their newly released EP, She's Got It. PopMatters says about the EP, "The opening "November Skin" serves as an excellent example of this, with Deale's vocals recalling the classic era of synthesizer pop (think: Berlin), the track tears down assumptions about the superficial."
