Playback St Louis Review of Cameron's Midwest Music Summit performance
by Jim Dunn
www.playbackstl.com
Cameron McGill from Chicago offered what was quite possibly the evening’s most impressive performance. His songs of the lost and the lonely can come across as a bit slight on his CD; in person, he has the persona of troubadour, if a slightly seedy one, banging his foot along with the songs and making the audience feel his music in every way possible. McGill’s lyrics are thoughtful and dreamy, which befits a man who seems a bit lost in his own world. In an amazing display, he picked up his guitar and struck some chords, fed them in to a machine, and looped them. They played on as he strummed another part, looped it, and let it play on. He did this twice more and then, when he had created his “band,” he sat down at his piano and proceeded to play. The effect was beautiful and McGill made it look effortless.

Cameron McGill with Portrait Perfume and Sick Day
Sunday, August 8, Cowboy Monkey
This Sunday, Urbana-born-and-raised singer/songwriter Cameron McGill honors his hometown with an appearnace at the Cowboy Monkey to play songs from his album Stories of the Knife and the Back, as well as new tunes from a forthcoming EP. Seeing McGill perform is like a gift that leaves you blown away and astonished, staring at the stage, possibly wiping a tear from your face. Though McGill seems to get surrounded completely by his own bubble of music, he still lets his audience become a part of his performance. It appears that it is not McGill himself who plays this wonderful piano and guitar-dominated melancholic music, but that the music takes over and loses McGill entranced in reverie. Seeing him live is an intense experience, and every minute is worth keeping your eyes on the stage. It is not surprising when the whole room turns silent to concentrate on this outstanding appearance and performance.
-Jana Robert, The Hub
