Hey Peace Farmers!..... POOBAH has been called "the most collectible psych rock band in the world" by Goldmine magazine, and the Cleveland Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (where Poobah has played 12 concerts -a record). Cleveland Scene magazine called Poobah "years ahead of their time". Original Poobah Vinyl LPs sell for as much as $900 for a single copy !
Martin Popoff of Guitar World called Poobah "King of Indie Rock", and "the greatest indie band of the 70's".
After over 2500 live shows in the USA and Canada and recording many CDs , Poobah rocks like no other. with a new CD ready to be released (the 12th CD).
Goldmine magazine called Poobah "brilliant guitar work, with a gift for melody". Check out our videos on youtube.com and here on Myspace. Poobah has never stopped recording and playing live. Recently Poobah performed at the Cleveland Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as backup band for Joe Bouchard (original Blue Oyster Cult) and what a blast that was!
Poobah guitarist and founder Jim Gustafson recorded an album with Jimi Hendrix bassist Billy Cox as producer,for Kenny Rogers' older brother Lelan's label,(as Biggy Rat) just before he formed Poobah.
..... Poobah has played shows with many famous artists,
including Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent ,Judas Priest ,Trent Reznor, ZZ Top, Cheech and Chong, James Gang , Billy Cox (Hendrix), Uriah Heep, Bobaflex,
Canned Heat, Spirit, Foghat, Cactus, Dennis Dunaway Project, Slade,

Playing at the Who's private party in Cleveland and meeting the band was also very cool. Poobah has headlined thousands of shows,had a blast and we ain't done yet!.....
You should see the band live for a fun, exciting show, with lots of powerful guitar flash , and amazing vocal ability!

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
