RADIO EXPRESS Pres./CEO BARBARA ROUNDS said, "The COCA-COLA OPEN HAPPINESS EXPRESS MIXSHOW with celebrity DJ A-ONE is in high demand by the stations and their listeners and positions the stations as the source of the newest hit music and exciting, highly produced content. COCA-COLA's multiple year investment in this programming firmly establishes this iconic global brand as the source of the newest hit music, both locally and with mainstream international hit music. The show also offers COCA-COLA a meaningful context for communicating its brand attributes and messages, building its community of passionate music fans, and organically infusing its promotional campaigns within the content. All in all, it's a win win for the sponsor, the local stations, and RADIO EXPRESS."
