Andy Kim 1970s

http://www.andykimmusic.com/about_andy.phpAndy Kim, legendary rock indie pop singer/songwriter: Andy Kim was inspired by the Beatles, Hank Williams, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, and Bob Dylan. At just 16 years old, he found fame when he wrote 'How Did We Ever Get This Way?' Andy Kim is a true Canadian son winning numerous awards with the JUNO Award (the country's top industry honor) for outstanding achievements in the record industry being at the top of his list not once, but twice.
1974 Canadian singer Andy Kim went to No.1 on the US singles chart with 'Rock Me Gently', it made No.2 in the UK. Kim was the co-writer of The Archies 'Sugar Sugar'.
Here again It is awesome when a successful artist of eras past is still performing in the 21st century.
In early 2010 at the supportive urging of friends and fans including American rock/pop legends and today's hottest indie artists, Andy Kim will release 'HAPPEN AGAIN'. This is an album of 10 brand new songs, each true to his passionate belief that "those who chase their dreams succeed only through sheer determination and a steadfast belief in the power of the individual to influence a multitude by speaking from the heart." Throughout his career, Andy has always maintained an unwavering and unconditional love for his music, believing that "art is more important than the artist." His new music possesses the timeless, transcendent and transforming qualities of his songs before, while giving us a very personal look into the artist's take on love and change. Songs such as "3 Days in Heaven," "Someday", "Without You," and "Happen Again" express the faith in love, life and the importance of personal strength to enduring change. (Source: About Andy Kim)
