Camp 10

Camp 10, Seattle University's resident reggae-heads will be playing the Quadstock student stage, returning after their recent Battle of the Bands appearance. Nick Jessen, Alex Swaab and Roberto Mendez harvest influences such as Sublime, Johnny Cash and Slightly Stoopid to form their particular brand of ska-tinged rock, laced with personal lyrics and bassy riffs. As the name suggests, the group was formed on the 10th floor of Seattle U's mega-residence hall, Campion. Jessen and Swaab formed the original lineup as freshmen The lineup has changed a number of times since, before settling on its current form with Mendez. Camp 10 hopes its music creates an experience that can be summed up as, "chill bro, relax, play Gamecube." Audiences looking to check out Camp 10 at Quadstock are instructed to "bring your skanking shoes, because it's gonna be a dancin' party."
