With over 6M monthly listeners on Spotify, 3M+ followers across socials, and 400M+ global streams to date, Whitcomb is riding high in what’s shaping up to be a landmark 2025 which saw the release of his latest single “Gasoline & Matches,” a fiery anthem about the indelibility of heartbreak, produced by Jack Riley and co-written with Chance Emerson. Earlier this year, Whitcomb dropped the breakout single, “Bad Apple,” which debuted as the #2 Most Added track at Alternative Radio and marked a sharp turn toward a more alt-driven sound.

Featured globally on the cover of Apple Music’s Today Country and named to both Spotify and Amazon Music’s 2025 Artists To Watch lists, Whitcomb also joined forces with rising indie folk artist Evan Honer for the raw collaborative single, “My Expense” and shared his own singles, “Options“ and “Hundred Mile High”. ELLE quickly praised the latter, writing, “The return of modern folk was written in the stars…The banjos pump the song forward, beckoning listeners on a cross-country road trip.”‍

One of the most captivating new songwriters of his generation, Cameron Whitcomb turns the most candid details of his real-life experience into songs with a strangely exhilarating power. Hailing from British Columbia’s Vancouver Island, Whitcomb left home at age 17 and got a job working on a pipeline, later spending much of his downtime singing karaoke and posting covers on Reddit. When an American Idol executive took note of his undeniable vocal talent, he landed a spot on the show’s 20^th season and emerged as a top 20 finalist. Whitcomb then immersed himself in learning to write songs while deep in the process of getting sober. After making his label debut with 2024’s “Rocking Chair” – which amassed over 40M combined views across socials prior to its premiere – Whitcomb took off on a fast ascent that soon found him embarking on his first-ever headline run, the sold-out Quitter Tour.
