Kurz-Bio:
Die Sängerin Patty Andrews wurde am 16. Februar 1918 in Mound, Minnesota, als Patricia Marie Andrews geboren und verstarb am 30. Jänner 2013 in Northridge, Kalifornien. Gefördert von ihrer musikalisch sehr ambitionierten Mutter, bildeten Patty's zwei ältere Schwestern LaVern Sofie, geboren am 6. Juli 1911 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, und am 8. Mai 1967 in Brentwood, Kalifornien einem Krebsleiden erlegen, sowie Maxene Angelyn, geboren am 3. Jänner 1916 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, und verstorben am 21. Oktober 1995 während eines Ferienaufenthaltes in Hyannis, eines der sieben Dörfer der Stadt Barnstable auf der Halbinsel Cape Cod, Massachusetts, an einer Herz-Attacke, mit ihr ein Gesangs-Trio. 1937, Patty war gerade 'mal 19 Jahre alt, wurden sie von Dave Kapp entdeckt und konnten einen Plattenvertrag bei DECCA unterschreiben und noch im gleichen Jahre hatten sie ihren Durchbruch mit dem für sie in englischer Sprache adaptierten Titel "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen". Patty spielte nebenbei auch fallweise Solo-Aufnahmen ein und 1954 verließ sie die Andrews Sisters, um sich auf eine Solo-Karriere zu konzentriren, was aber nicht sehr zufriedenstellend gelang. Sie trat daher, wenn immer sich die Gelegenheit ergab, weiterhin mit ihren älteren Schwestern auf.
