One Happy Camper

+ Matisyahu

The Foundation for Jewish Camp's One Happy Camper program is teaming up with Matisyahu for the release of his new album "Spark Seeker" this summer!

We will be hosting Matisyahu during his North American tour at New Jersey Y Cedar Lake Camp for a free acoustic concert on July 13 - a few days prior to the album release, with other area Jewish camps will be joining us for the show.

Want to get a taste of camp this summer - join us for the LIVE STREAM of the show at jewishcamp.org.

In celebration of this partnership, Matisyahu is offering all Jewish campers:

a free download of his new single, "Sunshine" ( http://matisyahuworld.com/fjcfreedownload)

and a reduced rate for the entire album "Spark Seeker" (http://matisyahuworld.com/fjcpreordercamp )

A large part of the record was recorded in Israel using amazing Israeli musicians. The album contains ideas about Jewish heroes like the Baal Shem Tov, prayers in Hebrew, and stories of Israel, along with universal inspiration sourced in Judaism. Each pre-ordered album will receive another instant download, "Tel Aviv'n," about Matisyahu's experience recording the new record in Israel.

Wishing you lots of sunshine this season!
