Check Out Kate Cameron’s Story

Today we’d like to introduce you to Kate Cameron.

Hi Kate, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today.
I grew up in a beach town between Boston and Cape Cod called Duxbury MA. Around age 7 I took voice lessons which eventually led to some piano lessons as well.

At age 11 I taught myself guitar and started writing songs. After high school, I attended Berklee College of Music and moved to Nashville shortly after graduating. I like to think I have a pretty distinct and unique vocal sound that lands somewhere between my Boston roots and her Nashville idols.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Balancing personal life with music as well as finding jobs to make an income along the way are always a day-to-day grind. I’ve had several jobs outside of music that some folks may be surprised to hear about. The most influential one was probably when I managed 60 air bibs in Nashville for a couple of years.

It was a job I fell into but got a lot of experience from. I handled every single tactical task for all 60 apartments through Nashville, as well as the guests and maintenance that came with them. It was not an easy job by no means but I am for sure a great delegator in all parts of my life now.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I like to introduce myself as a singer/songwriter but truly a performer at heart. I was performing before I started writing songs so I keep that part of me pretty close. In college, I used to play bars in Boston up to 4 times a week, while attending Berklee. That is truly where I got my groundwork for becoming a live performer.

If I’m setting myself apart from others it’s definitely because of my vocal tonality. It’s rare that folks can compare it to anyone and it’s cool to have a sound that’s pretty unique. I’m really proud of my years (over a decade) of live performing and working as a professional musician.

What quality or characteristic do you feel is most important to your success?
Staying true to yourself is really important. But even more important is having positive attire when relating to the music industry, Being awesome and easy to work with get’s you further than anything.

Also, attempt to be nice to every single person that you meet. You never know who is going to be the next song or artist that is connected to your own success!
