Black and White Heart is the debut studio album recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Andee, released May 26, 2015 through Universal Music Canada.[2] Primarily an English-language album, the deluxe edition includes four tracks recorded in French to reflect Andee's heritage as a French Canadian. Musically, the album incorporates elements of pop, rock, and soul.[3][4][5] Sébastien Lefebvre, best known as a member of Simple Plan, produced the album and also co-wrote nine of the thirteen songs; Andee is credited as a writer (under her birth name Andrée-Anne Leclerc) on eight tracks.

The album received generally positive reviews upon release, with critics noting Andee's "powerhouse" vocals and unique sound.[4][5] It entered the Billboard Canadian Albums Chart at number sixteen on the chart dated June 6, 2015.[6] On iTunes Canada, the album reached as high as number four on the pop sales chart.[7][non-primary source needed] The album has produced three singles, including the top-forty-peaking lead single "Never Gone".
