Биография

An artist of extraordinary vision, Dove Cameron redefines what’s possible in the confines of a three-minute pop song. As revealed on her breakthrough single “Boyfriend”—an empowered piece of noir-pop turned massively beloved queer anthem, co-written by the 26-year-old singer/songwriter—she imbues her music with equal parts drama and confession, raw abandon and unsparing self-awareness (Currently starring in the Apple TV+ musical-comedy series Schmigadoon! alongside the likes of Keegan-Michael Key, Alan Cumming, and Kristen Chenoweth, she won a 2018 Daytime Emmy Award for her dual role as both title characters on the Disney Channel’s Liv and Maddie.) With its bombastic rhythms and cinematic strings, “Boyfriend” also spotlights Cameron’s singular musicality, a quality influenced by the jazz and classical records her late father often played for her as a child growing up on Bainbridge Island (a town off the coast of Seattle). After discovering her obsession with music as a young girl, she started creating her own songs at age 15, then continued honing her craft as her acting career took off; by 2019 she’d landed a deal with Sony’s Disruptor Records/ Columbia Records, and soon made her long-anticipated debut as a solo artist.
