Whakatane's Cameron Rota is set to be the next Stan Walker - at just 15.
The singer-songwriter has just released his debut single called One of a Kind, which soared into the New Zealand Top 40 Singles Chart within 12 hours of its release.
Cameron's career was sparked after his involvement with the New Zealand series of The X-Factor in 2013, and he has since gained international interest and support from musicians Vince Harder, Daniel Bedingfield and producer Sam DeJong.
His single was recorded at Auckland's Parachute Studios and together with his management team and Daniel Bedingfield, Cameron spent several months working towards its release.
Cameron said he was thrilled about releasing his first album and was blown away by the reaction it's had so far.
