Cameron Lam (he/they) is Melbourne-based composer, obsessive dabbler, excitable research nerd, and joyful collaborator. He creates music-based works that connect multiple artforms (and hopefully multiple humans) with his production company/record label Kammerklang and on other freelance projects. They are also a passionate curator and champion of the Australian art music community, running the Australian Art Music playlist on Spotify and in their previous role as Art Music Lead at the APRA AMCOS. His music has been described by Limelight Magazine as “a fantastical world in which mythological stories come to life” and “infused with a Northern European sensibility – dark, emotional, restrained”. Cameron excels at vocal and chamber music where each performer has agency and a chance to contribute to collective art making. This has most recently led to being shortlisted for Australia’s prestigious Paul Lowin Prize for their spectral a cappella song cycle about getting naked and loving your queer self, The Splendour of Lying Naked in the Sun.
