Alex Cameron (born 11 September 1988) is a singer-songwriter from Sydney, Australia. He is best known for his solo career, a high-concept act in which Cameron initially adopted the persona of a failed entertainer. During live performances, Cameron is often joined by saxophonist and "business partner" Roy Molloy. Before making music under his own name, Cameron was also a member of the electronica act Seekae, releasing three studio albums with them.
Cameron independently released his debut album, Jumping the Shark, for free on his website in 2013. In 2016, Secretly Canadian reissued the album to a wider audience and growing cult fanbase.
In 2017, Cameron released his second studio album, Forced Witness, a departure from the mostly-electronic sound of his debut album, the album was produced by Foxygen's Jonathan Rado, and features a full-band production, including Molloy on saxophone. That same year, Cameron co-wrote five tracks on The Killers' fifth studio album, Wonderful Wonderful, with frontman Brandon Flowers appearing on the closing track of Forced Witness, "Politics of Love".
His third studio album, Miami Memory, was released in September 2019. In 2020, Cameron co-wrote four songs on The Killers' sixth studio album, Imploding the Mirage, co-produced by Cameron's longtime producer Jonathan Rado. On May 8, 2020, Cameron released a single cover of the Paul Kelly song "Before Too Long".
His fourth studio album, Oxy Music, was released in March 2022. The album features Lloyd Vines and Sleaford Mods' Jason Williamson. The album is inspired by the opioid epidemic and Nico Walker's novel Cherry. In its press release, Cameron explained: "The album is a story, a work of fiction, mostly from the perspective of a man. Starved of meaningful purpose, confused about the state of the world, and in dire need of a reason to live. This is one of those people."
Cameron's fifth studio album, Late to Set, was released in July 2026. The record is described as Cameron finding “pieces of his own reflection in the shattered characters he creates” as well as in “Agamemnon’s appetite for war, Mel Gibson’s ransom note, humanity’s pro-war destiny, (and) a cold war breakup.”
