Montreal, Quebec native Andrew Youakim tried his hand in the music business with just forty dollars in his pocket. He worked numerous jobs, and continuously recorded demos, before convincing music producer and songwriter Jeff Barry to give him a break.
Andy then recorded his debut single “How’d We Ever Get This Way” for the label Steed in April of 1968, becoming a top 20 radio hit in Canada and the US. From that point on Kim looked full steam ahead, taking home the top male vocalist of the year at the 1968 Juno’s, co-wrote “Sugar Sugar” for the Archies plus a slew of songs on the Monkees album “Changes” as well as releasing his own groovy tune “Rock Me Gently” that soared to #1 on the Billboard pop charts in 1974, selling six million copies.
In this newest episode, Andy talks with Jigme about his name change to Baron Longfellow, what the music business was like in the early days, the moment John Lennon handed him his gold record, meeting Elvis Presley, tribute show to Gordon Lightfoot, and MORE! As well as his upcoming annual Christmas show
