FEATURING:
Andy Kim
A true architect of pop music history, Canadian icon Andy Kim has penned and performed some of the most beloved hits of the last half-century. Born in Montréal to Lebanese immigrants, Andy carved his way into music legend with perseverance, grit, and undeniable talent.
At just 16, Andy boarded a bus to New York City with $40 and a dream. Days later, he was in the Brill Building, playing songs for famed producer Jeff Barry. That bold move launched a career that would see Andy co-write the global sensation “Sugar, Sugar” for The Archies, which became Billboard’s Record of the Year and the top-selling song of 1969. Just a few years later, he struck gold again with “Rock Me Gently,” a self-produced anthem that hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Andy’s impact on music is staggering:
- 2 Billboard No. 1 singles
- 9 Billboard Top 40 hits
- Over 30 million records sold worldwide
- Juno Award winner
- Inductee of the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Canada’s Walk of Fame, and the Songwriters Hall of Fame
- Twice honored by SOCAN with the Cultural Impact Award
- Inductee of Billboard’s Hit Parade Hall of Fame and the Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame
- Named to the Order of Canada
- Recipient of the Key to the City of Toronto and namesake of “Andy Kim Day” (Dec. 8)
Andy’s annual “Andy Kim Christmas” concert, now in its 20th year, has raised over $2.25 million for children’s charities, showcasing his commitment to giving back.
A revered songwriter and performer, Andy continues to collaborate with artists like Ed Robertson (Barenaked Ladies) and Kevin Drew (Broken Social Scene), pushing his craft forward while honoring his roots. His 2015 album It’s Decided earned praise from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, and Uncut, and he performed on The Late Show with David Letterman in one of the show’s final episodes.
In 2024, Bryan Adams captured Andy’s enduring spirit in a magazine cover photo shoot—a tribute to an artist who has never stopped evolving.
Andy Kim’s story is one of heart, hustle, and timeless hits.
