The O'Kaysions are an American pop / blue-eyed soul group originally from Wilson, North Carolina, USA.
The band started under the name The Kays.
Today, they are known as Beach Music artists. The group first formed under the name The Kays in 1959, and scored a Top 10 hit in the U.S. in 1968 with the tune "(I'm A) Girl Watcher" (#5 Pop, #6 R&B). It was their only major hit, and they released their full length album in 1969 entitled The O'Kaysions on the ABC label.
The group still performs today with a different line-up. Wayne Pittman is the only original member remaining active in the band. He also serves as the manager of the group.
