The son of a classically trained pianist with a Master's Degree in Classical Performance, Camp grew up with music filling his house from an early age. He began piano lessons at the age of 5 and took a special interest in his drum lessons at the age of 10. Not getting involved in too many extra-curricular activities from school, he spent most of his free time in his basement practicing/playing drums and sitting at the piano. As a teen he took up percussion/drum lessons with local Anderson University Professor of Percussion, Jeff McLaughlin. After a few years, he gained the recognition of Dane Clark, the local drummer for John Mellencamp, who took notice of Camp and taught Camp lessons out of Clark's home in Indiana. Camp attended the Ball State University School of Music with a focus in Music Technology.
