Chubby Checker exploded onto the music scene in 1960 and never looked back. Known as “King of the Twist”, Chubby Checker is one of the few entertainers who has successfully sustained a career over six and a half decades. In two minutes and 42 seconds, Chubby Checker revolutionized popular culture and changed the music business forever. When he appeared on American Bandstand in 1960 and performed “The Twist,” it was the dawn of a new era in Rock & Roll.
He stands alone as a one-of-a-kind Rock icon, who has had 36 hit records, is the only artist to have a single go No. 1 twice, and according to Billboard, has the No. 1 single for the entire decade of the 60’s as well as the first No. 1 Song of All Time.
