PROFILE
Cameron James is an award-winning stand-up comedian, musician and storyteller across stages, screens, boomboxes and podcasts.
Cam has won countless rave reviews for his completely unique “rockstar without a band” comedy style; blending songs as catchy as they are funny, painfully true stories and sharp improvisation.
In 2024, Cam partnered up with Aussie music legend Ben Lee’s indie record label to release his own comedy music, with his single “Medium D*ck” racking up tens of thousands of Spotify streams and over 9 million views on Instagram and YouTube.
His most recent one hour solo shows, Electric Dreams and Mixtape have sold out around the country, earning him the Director’s Choice Award at Sydney Comedy Festival and a nomination for the highly coveted Most Outstanding Show Award at Melbourne Int. Comedy Festival.
Other awards include: Raw Comedy National Runner Up in 2012, multiple AWGIE Awards for Best Comedy Writing, and an APA Award for Best Entertainment Podcast.
Cam has most recently appeared on these TV shows: The Gala, Spicks and Specks, Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont-Spelling Bee, Bump, Utopia, WTFAQ, Question Everything, At Home Alone Together, and his own comedy special on ABC’s Comedy Next Gen in 2018.
As a sought out comedy writer, Cam has served multiple seasons on Gruen, Take 5, We Interrupt This Broadcast, At Home Alone Together, Win The Week, Channel Seven’s “Celebrity Roasts”. As well as head comedy writer on The Feed – leading to multiple AWG awards.
But Cameron’s passion is creating his own comedy projects, from his beloved cult sketch series with Becky Lucas, The Becky & Cam Show, to the hit YouTube/Screen Australia series Finding Yeezus and the podcasts Finding Drago and Finding Desperado. The Finding series has amassed an audience of over 1.5 million around the globe, and has been described by The Australian as “tremendously bonkers” and by The AV Club as “brilliantly silly”.
