Poobah


Youngstown, 1971-present

Poobah has been Youngstown's standard bearer for heavy guitar powered rock-n-roll for 30+ years. Guitar wizard Jim Gustafson is Poobah, for all intents, he founded the band and is the only member to have played since its formation. Prior to Poobah, Gustafson was in Biggy Rat.

Poobah released three LPs in the 70s, and while somewhat quiet in the 80s and early 90s, they have returned with new recordings and play the occasional gig.
