Singer-Songwriter Cam Discusses Working on Five Tracks for Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’: ‘She’s Just Such a Creative Genius’


Country singer-songwriter Cam discusses writing, producing, engineering and singing on Beyoncé's new album 'Cowboy Carter.'

Since debuting in 2010, the 39-year-old has etched a name for herself as an artist and songwriter, releasing a pop album in 2010 before a heel-turn to country with 2015’s “Untamed.” That record spawned her highest-charting hit to date, the confessional “Burning House,” which landed her a Grammy nomination. But she hit a different stride with 2020’s “The Otherside,” working with longtime collaborator Tyler Johnson and Jack Antonoff for a collection of songs that conveyed a deeper sophistication in her writing and performance. An accomplished songwriter for others with credits on tracks from Miley Cyrus and Sam Smith, Cam is drawing from the collaborative approach she experienced while working on “Cowboy Carter” for her next solo album, which is currently without a release date.
