Kam-Hill

Camille Périer (1856–1935), known by his stage name Kam-Hill, was a French cabaret performer and singer in Paris.

[1] He was the son of a musician at the Opéra-Comique and brother of the famous opera and operetta singer Jean Périer.

[2] He began to sing from the lyric repertoire around 1885 in salons, before making his real debut at the Gaîté Montparnasse in 1890 in his trademark bizarre costume resembling a rider, with red coat, black silk trousers, a top hat and white gloves; he even sang on horseback at the Nouveau Cirque in Paris.

[1] Yvette Guilbert and Kam-Hill appeared together regularly, often singing songs by Tarride.

[2] He also appeared at the Eldorado, the La Scala, the Ambassadeurs, and the Folies Bergère.
