The Cardigans' Nina Persson never considered herself rock star material. Even with the worldwide success of her band's song "Lovefool," Persson still saw herself as a fan who loved to make music and write songs. To continue with that, Persson founded the experimental indie act A Camp in 1997. She and Swedish musician Niclas Frisk came up with the project one evening after meeting in a bar. A friendship was born and nine songs were eventually composed, but Persson was called to road to support The Cardigans' fourth album, Gran Turismo. By 2000, A Camp resumed schedule. Persson got Sparklehorse's Mark Linkous in the production seat for her first solo album while boyfriend/Shudder To Think guitarist Nathan Larson and Frisk added instrumentation. From there, A Camp collected a quirky, sweet sound and debut single "I Can Buy You" arrived in summer 2001. Persson's A Camp also wowed audiences at V2001 in England a month prior to issuing her first self-titled album. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
