Andy Kim is celebrating his 79th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.
Popular singer-songwriter Andy Kim (Rock Me Gently, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 79th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Kim, a cultural icon
Born Andrew Youakim in Montreal on December 5, 1946, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Kim's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Andy hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Andy Kim as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 79.
Happy Birthday, Andy, you're the best!
