The Story

Formed1967OriginUnited StatesGenrebubblegum musicLabelBuddah Records, Cameo-Parkway Records

Imagine a sun-soaked Saturday afternoon, kids riding bikes and the unmistakable sound of bubblegum pop wafting through the air. That’s the world of Ohio Express, a colorful slice of American music that sprang from the heart of Mansfield, Ohio, in 1967. While the name conjures images of a lively band, it was more of a brand crafted by the savvy minds of Jerry Kasenetz and Jeffry Katz at Super K Productions, showcasing various musicians in the studio. The catchy anthem “Yummy, Yummy, Yummy” still echoes in the hearts of those who danced to its infectious beat. With a blend of carefree melodies and vibrant rhythms, Ohio Express remains a testament to the joyous spirit of a generation, bringing smiles and nostalgia to anyone who tunes in.
