Dorothy Sloop (September 26, 1913 – July 28, 1998), also later known as Dorothy Sloop Heflick, was an American jazz pianist who performed with jazz bands. A native of Ohio, her nickname was Sloopy,[1] and she was likely the inspiration behind the song "Hang On Sloopy", written by Wes Farrell and Bert Berns, and best-known from the version recorded by the rock band The McCoys.[2] In 1985, it became the official rock song of Ohio and is used by the Ohio State University marching band.[2]
