Terry Robert Kirkman (December 12, 1939 – September 23, 2023) was an American singer and songwriter best known as a vocalist for the pop group The Association and the writer of several of the band's hit songs such as "Cherish", "Everything That Touches You", and "Six Man Band".

Terry Robert Kirkman was born in Salina, Kansas, on December 12, 1939, and was raised in Chino, California.

His parents both had a musical background.

His father Gordon had performed in bands as a soprano saxophone player and singer, and his mother Lois played the organ and piano at church and in silent film theaters.

He first learned how to play brass instruments as a child, during the Second World War.

1957

After graduating from Chino High School in 1957, he attended Chaffey College as a music major.

1959

He met Frank Zappa in college and they performed together at local coffeehouses from 1959 to 1961.

As a salesman visiting Hawaii in 1962, Kirkman met Jules Alexander, who was in the United States Navy at the time, and the two resolved to meet when Alexander would be discharged from his military duties.

1963

Kirkman moved to Los Angeles with Alexander in 1963.

Kirkman and Alexander founded the folk group the Inner Tubes, which at one time included both Cass Elliot and David Crosby.

The Inner Tubes slowly grew from a small group into a 13-piece band called the Men.

1965

The Men disbanded in February 1965 and Kirkman and five other members formed their own band.

To find a new name, they perused a dictionary and chose "the Association" after it was suggested by Kirkman's fiancée.

1966

The Association quickly gained fame with their songs "Cherish" and "Along Comes Mary" from their 1966 debut album And Then... Along Comes the Association.

Kirkman contributed vocals to many songs, including "Never My Love", "Cherish", and "Everything That Touches You".

1967

He performed with the group at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967.

His "Requiem for the Masses", a song written about the war in Vietnam, featured requiem-style vocals.

The Association were nominated for a Grammy Award six times, three times each in the 9th (1967) and 10th Annual Grammy Awards (1968).

1969

In August 1969, a collection of poems penned by the seven members of the Association was released as the book Crank Your Spreaders.

1972

Kirkman left the Association at the end of 1972, and returned when the band was reformed in 1979, after previously splitting up the year before.

1984

After growing tired of touring, Kirkman left the band in 1984.

Subsequently, on rare occasions he performed in guest appearances with the band.

As a member of The Association, he was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2003.
