With guitarist Randy Bachman he wrote for the band, and American Woman (1970) made them the first Canadian band with a chart-topping single in the US. He launched a solo career with Burton Cummings (1976), a top ten album in Canada that included the hit "Stand Tall," and was named best male vocalist at the Juno Awards in 1977. My Own Way to Rock (1977), Dream of a Child (1978), Woman Love (1980), Sweet Sweet (1981), Heart (1984) and Plus Signs (1990) followed, along with the solo-piano live set Up Close and Alone (1997), Above the Ground (2008) and A Few Good Moments (2024). He has won the Juno Award for Album of the Year and won a second Juno for Woman Love.
