Biography

Heinz Kiessling (March 11, 1926 – December 27, 2003) was a German musician, conductor, composer, and music producer, known mainly from his work for popular films and television programs. Kiessling's piece Temptation Sensation (originally titled Haute Couture) is the theme song for It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the longest-running live-action sitcom in American television history. The series also uses background music during its episodes from Kiessling, including On your Bike and Blue Blood (originally titled Tandem-Holiday and Pizzicata Milanese respectively).
