From the Promoter

evenko and Live Nation are pleased to present the Andy Kim Christmas in Montreal on Saturday, December 10 at the Corona Theatre.

For more than ten years now, this special event has been gathering friends and fans together to celebrate the spirit and generosity of the musical community with all proceeds going to charity. The concert event is the brainchild of music legend, and the evening's host and performer, Andy Kim, who will be joined by Roch Voisine, Ron Sexsmith, Tim Barker (Hey Rosetta|), Whitehorse and Murray Lightburn (The Dears).

"I've always believed in the power of music to heal and it's powerful ability to alter our moods. I'm excited to commit the proceeds of this year's 3rd Annual Andy Kim Christmas show to the Starlight Children's Foundation."

Brian Bringolf Starlight' Canada’s Executive Director has this to say: Starlight Children's Foundation is a leader in providing in and out of hospital services to seriously ill children and their families. In Montreal, Starlight touches over 5000 children each and every month. Starlight Children's Foundation Canada is delighted to embark upon this partnership with Mr. Andy Kim. Andy's songs have brought much joy to so many adults for so many years it is only fitting that this fundraiser will help Starlight bring joy to many Montreal children suffering from serious illness.''

During this one-of-a-kind charity event, patrons will be treated to a classic variety entertainment show that includes holiday performances by some of the country's most sought-after singer/songwriters and some special surprises....
