The Original Lakeside
R&B / Soul
The Lakeside journey began when a group of high school students from Ohio formed a band made up of talented musicians and a ferocious stamina that has sustained them for more than 27-years. A feat not many bands can boast about. Formerly known as the Ohio Lakeside Express, their travel has taken throughout the world opening for legends like Redd Foxx, Eddie Kendricks and many others. The band really gained steam after an incident in Oklahoma forced a move to Los Angeles. There the band produced their first album with SOLAR Records, “Shot Of Love”. Off of this album came the wildly popular, “It’s All The Way Live”, and 2 years later in 1980, they released, “Fantastic Voyage”. Throughout their career the band has been known and loved for their extravagant stage presence and creative album cover themes. Though time marches on never-ending this group of musicians never disappoints and continues to two-step their way into the hearts and souls of the crowd.
