In 1995 John Allan Cameron was awarded the East Coast Music Association's Lifetime Achievment Award in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the music industry through the pursuit of his career. You must know John Allan Cameron to understand that receiving this prestigious award is not the cumilation of his work, but rather the many milestones that has marked as outstanding and still active career.
He is Cape Breton music's greatest ambassador. The first to popularize celtic music by picking fiddle tunes on his twelve string, John Allan deserves credit for paving the way for many Cape Breton artists. Joker, jester, bon vivant, John Allan is the consumate performer. He has shared the stage with Anne Murray, Kris Kristofferson, Roger Whittaker, and the Clancy Brothers, to name just a few from a list which literally reads like a who's who of the Canadian and international music scene.
The motivation that drives performers to the level of excellence John Allan has achieved has not left him. Lengevity is an enviable commodity in the entertainment business -- it has given him the confidence to act upon his convictions. John Allan's music and humor have made the world his stage.
