Americana Highways
True to its mission, and somewhat countering Caamp’s consistent head-toward-the-big-horizon sound, Lavender Days takes note of the little things, both good and not-so.

All told, Lavender Days is a quintessential album for sitting on your porch in warm weather, a feeling that even the inclusion of a song entitled “Snowshoes” can’t dispel. Throw it on and let the easy-going summer mood waft over you.

Overall, Caamp’s third studio album has enough songs for most people to enjoy, whether you're playing it while on a hike, around a campfire or just lounging around - there is something for everybody to enjoy.

AllMusic
Songs of love, hope, loss, and heartache are ubiquitous for a reason, and Meier and Westfall are, without a doubt, adept interpreters of the familiar.

Tuned Up
If CAAMP continues applying whatever formula they’ve seemed to carry over with each release the past half-decade, there’s really no telling the longevity of this band. It’s honest music from humble people who are honestly and humbly evolving. And it still evokes the same emotions maintained over all of CAAMP’s releases. Take this from “Found (Forever)” as a parting gift: “And if oceans come between us, let the Earth become the sky.”
