Beyond the scope of our small town, Allen has led his band Fuzz-Huzzi up and down the coast and across the Mid-West throughout their extensive career. Their current line-up consists of Camp on lead vocals and guitar, Adam Baez sharing guitar duties, the prodigal Ivan English on bass, and Pete Abdou rocking the drum kit. Locally, the group has worked with such luminaries as Marcos Curiel of P.O.D., who produced their latest EP, “Smell the Streets of Hollywood“. They’ve been establishing a presence in Hollywood as well and took home the title of Independent Rock Artists of the Year in 2006 at the 16th annual Los Angeles Music Awards.”

“Fuzz-Huzzi is CityBeat's "favorite thrash-rock band from Imperial Beach”

“Fuzz Huzzi is an indie band that certainly sounds like they could be snapped up by a major label...... All the modern rock lynchpins are here—layered guitar riffs, funk-influenced bass and drum patterns.......”

“Down to providing their own stage plots and designing their own logo, Fuzz-Huzzi are the unsung workhorses-slash-court jesters of indie rock in San Diego. ”
Will K. Shilling San Diego City Beat
“Fuzz-Huzzi, whose excellent current CD is titled “Smell The Streets Of Hollywood,” took time out from their manic, power-rockin’ set to fittingly thank the Knitting Factory for supporting local music..... .. .. ”

Bio
Fuzz Huzzi has been a mainstay of the San Diego music scene since 1994. After a brief hiatus they are back with a fresh line up and new batch of songs. The trend of very personal and emotional lyrics with a high intensity live show for which the band gained renown over the years strives to reach new hights.
Guitarist, vocalist and song writer Allen Camp has spend twenty five years telling his story of life in a difficult upbringing on the streets of Imperial Beach California in song. He continues to wear his heart on his slieve and be very open about his struggles as a working musician, the toal that touring takes on his family and the challenge of growing up with parents who spent most of his childhood fighting addiction. He has found an affective method for combining these complex topics with hard-driving Rock-N-Roll in to a blistering live set.
Frank Mercurio, bass, and Cory Wilkins, drums, are the new comers to the group, but each brings over twenty years of their own professional experience to the band. Mercurio spent most of the 2000s on major tours with Cypress Hill." Wilkins played drums as a youth, but became an award winning frontman and song writer during his twenties and early thirties. He rediscovered his love for drums filling in with Fuzz Huzzi for a set in Phoenix AZ in 2018 and has not looked back.
The future for Fuzz Huzzi has never looked so bright. With a new release in 2019 and an ever growing live schedule, the band is determined to build on their legacy rather than sit back and simply relive past victories.
