After leaving Smash Mouth, Camp released a solo album, Defektor, on Bar/None Records. Guitar Player wrote that the album “weaves together everything you love about vintage guitar tones, tortured Farfisa, ’60s frat-rock vocal hooks, and epic Morricone-esque soundscapes.”

In June 2009 Camp played a couple of concerts with Smash Mouth, but never rejoined the band. He also plays guitar and sings with Santa Cruz rock band The Maids of Honor and Los Angeles The Selectrics.
