Ok Ron Dante sang the song. Andy Kim co-wrote it, but be did sing back up vocals. For Christ's sake you can clearly hear him in the background. And yes Don Kirshner put together the line up that became the fictional Archies band.
Andy Kim and Ron Dante were so very talented, we love their work on the ARCHIES album's . Their music put smiles on everyone's face that heard them. And all of the talented musicians that played on the Archie albums. Hearing their music as children realy made us appreciate all that went into making a album.
Andy Kim DID sing Sugar Sugar. The Archies was a pen name. This hit was also only a studio hit being that Andy Kim was the only person in the "band". That is also why "The Archies" never went on tour despite having a number of hits. ex. Bang Shang a Lang ('it's on youtube')
The 4th annual Andy Kim Christmas Show will be held on December 10, 2008 at the Mod Club Toronto, Canada. All money raised from this great charity event will go to the Sanfilippo Children's Research Foundation.
