In 1997 he was named New Zealand Entertainer of the Year.
He has held a variety of other positions - a gardener for Porirua Hospital, a Merry-go-round operator and MCing the Sweetwaters Music Festival.
McCormick is currently a radio co-host with Simon Barnett on More FM in Christchurch, and also has a regular slot on TVNZ's Good Morning show.
