He has premiered dozens of works for bass, including pieces by Ben Johnston, Allan Segall, Violeta Dinescu, Yehuda Yannay, Herbert Brun, and many others. He has also performed a number of American premiers, among them works by Sofia Gubaidulina, Kaija Saariaho, and Luciano Berio.

Cameron has appeared in over 20 recordings, beginning with his debut on Gasparo with Claude Baker’s “Hommage e Fantasie” (“...this one’s a beauty...” Fanfare). He has also recorded three discs of works by Anthony Braxton and Guillermo Gregorio for the Hat Art label (...fresh, vibrant and adventuresome...4 stars, Downbeat). A new disc of music by Thomas Fredrickson for Perseus Audio was released in 2012, and a recording of sonatas was released on Albany Records in 2016.

Cameron has performed with Ensemble Modern, Albany Symphony, and Pacifica Quartet, all Grammy-winning ensembles, and has served as principal bassist of the Sinfonia da Camera and Slee Sinfonietta. He has given dozens of master classes at major music schools (Cleveland Institute, Manhattan School of Music, Indiana University, and the Royal Conservatory of Music). More than fifty of his arrangements and editions are published by BassScores Editions.

He is an active freelance writer, with over 400 articles published in the Chicago Tribune, Musical America, Fanfare, American String Teachers, Chicago Classical Review, and Bass World. He is Professor of Double Bass at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign.
