The Blue Devils are undeniably one of the world's most successful drumlines with an impressive 20 DCI World Championship titles. This groundbreaking accomplishment not only marked a milestone in Campbell's career but also showcased the remarkable talent that exists within the Australian drumming community.

His contributions have been instrumental in enhancing the atmosphere and musical experience of events such as the 2022 AFL Grand Final, the 2017 Rugby League World Cup opening ceremony, the multiple Victorian State School Spectaculars, and notable TV commercials for companies including Ford, OPPO and Aldi. Campbell's ability to craft captivating musical directions and compositions has made him an invaluable asset in the realm of event production and entertainment.
