Cimarron 615

Cimarron 615’s history dates back to country-rock legends Poco and their tardy frontman Rusty Young, with whom all five members share a musical history. When Young died in 2021, Blue Élan Records head Kirk Pasich organized a tribute concert and album featuring the musicians who became Cimarron 615 as the house band. The chemistry between the quintet was so clear that Pasich offered them a recording contract as an independent touring band. Named after the Poco classic “Rose of Cimarron” and the 615 Nashville area code, each member of Cimarron 615 is a respected songwriter, talented singer and virtuoso instrumentalist. The band consists of Rick Lonow (Poco, Flying Burrito Brothers), drums/percussion/vocals; Jack Sundrud (Poco, Great Plains), bass/vocals; Michael Webb (Poco, Hank Williams Jr.), keyboards/mandolin/accordion/vocals; and Ronnie Guilbeau (Flying Burrito Brothers, Griffin-Yancey-Guilbeau, Palomino Road), guitars/vocals.
