Andy Kim In Concert
When Andy Kim steps on stage, a kind of musical magic trick happens. The decades that have passed since he scored his biggest international hits with infectious pop classics like "Rock Me Slowly" and "Baby I Love You" somehow seem to fall away, and all that's left is the simmering passion, husky vocal power, and rock-star charisma that first brought him fame. And while that in itself would be plenty of reason to see Kim in concert, there's the institution he established in 2005 with his annual Christmas show in Toronto. At that holiday extravaganza, not only do you get to see the Canadian hitmaker belting out a bunch of his most popular tunes, you're also treated to a cavalcade of top-tier guests, including some of the best Canada has to offer. Everybody from Alex Lifeson of Rush to Broken Social Scene has turned out for the event, often guesting with Kim on his set to help bring it all home.
Andy Kim Background
Montreal-born Andy Kim found fame when he started scoring Top 40 hits like "How'd We Ever Get This Way?" and his cover of The Ronettes' classic "Baby I Love You" in the late '60s. But he also slipped into success through the back door during that same period, when he cowrote the No. 1 hit "Sugar Sugar" by The Archies. Kim continued to score hits under his own name in the early '70s, but the moment that really ensured his immortality arrived in 1974 when he topped the charts with his song "Rock Me Gently," a tune that would come to define '70s pop music. At the end of the '70s the unpredictable Kim adopted the alter ego Baron Longfellow, and in 1980 he scored a hit under that name with "Amour." Before the '90s were out, Kim was pretty much in retirement, but he was coaxed out of it in the '00s by Barenaked Ladies frontman Ed Robertson, who collaborated with Kim on the latter's 2004 track "I Forgot to Mention." In 2005 he inaugurated his Christmas show in Toronto, an annual benefit that would find some of the biggest artists in Canada joining in each year for a heady holiday bash.

I loved the entire show, the MC was very funny. I loved that it was different entertainers throughout the night. Covering all stages of music on the same stage. Three hours of entertainment, with a super surprise ending. I wish I knew about this show years ago. I looked up the past.. I missed a lot of great artists. Differently going to the future shows. Awesome Night!!
This show is THE Toronto ticket!! If you’ve never been, you ave to go! I is Toronto in its glory!! We went 2 yrs ago for the 19th anniversary and we will never miss this show again!
What a great way to kick off the Christmas season! All the artists were absolutley amazing. it was like being at a big party. Definitley will go again.
Our Family and friends were all there to experience the best in Canadian 🇨🇦 and International talent! Mr. Andy Kim has a heart of gold 💛 and is such a national treasure. His charitable contributions to CAMH and humanity is extraordinary!!! Peace ☮️ and blessings to all in 2025!
Another wonderful start to the Christmas season. Andy Kim gathered an impressive group of iconic musicians who delivered powerful, heartwarming performances showing their love and caring for Andy for CAMH and Toronto. I loved being part of the sold out audience in the beautiful historic Massey Hall.
The concert with Andy Kim was awesome. For someone his age (77 years) he can still sing and belt out the tunes. It was such an enjoyable evening. All the songs brought back so many good memories. The band and the back up singers were fantastic, such great voices and instrumentation. All very professional!! Everyone around me was enjoying the show. Thank you Andy Kim for coming to Niagara Falls to the Avalon Theatre and putting on such an amazing show.
My husband is a big 60's/70's music fan. He bought the tickets and I was along for the adventure. Which included a trip to Niagara Falls Canada for the show. I didn't know the name Andy Kim. It was pointed out to me the one song I surely must know, which I did - Rock Me Gently. I'm happy to report I was pleasantly surprised and impressed by the overall show. Great back up singers and musicians. Kind of had a little bit of a Vegas act feel to it with talking, reminiscing, storytelling. I would recommend seeing Mr Kim even if you aren't familiar. His voice is still pretty good given his age.
Andy was great, the band and back up singers were amazing. Andy played all the big hits and some of his favorites. He did some story telling on his life, family and songwriting. Truly a great Canadian Artist that deserves more respect then he gets from radio or the music biz. Saw him at the Falls View Casino, great place to see a show. Andy does not do many shows, so if he is every near your city go see him.
My Aunt and I had the pleasure of attending the Andy Kim 10th annual X-mas concert in his and our hometown Montreal. What an honor and privilege to be entertained by a true national musical icon, and to get to listen to his greatest hits in person. Thank you Andy Kim, and all the talented, and generous musicians who volunteered their time to put on such a wonderful show, for such a great cause! Happy holidays to you all! Hope to see you again next year.
