Ginger Root

Bio

Cameron Lew, aka Ginger Root, is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, songwriter, and visual artist from Southern California. He’s crafted his project steadily since 2017, inviting a fervent and growing legion of fans into storylines drawn across mediums: captivating albums with accompanying films and globe-spanning tours. The Ginger Root sound—handmade yet immaculately polished synth-pop, alt-disco, boogie, and soul—takes shape through Lew’s lens as an Asian-American growing up enamored by 1970s and ’80s music, specifically the creative and cultural dialogue between Japanese City Pop and its Western counterparts from French Pop to Philly Soul to Ram-era McCartney. Ginger Root’s most recent collection, Shinbangumi, was released in September 2024.
