Jay Siegel’s Tokens are one of pop music's most versatile, talented and enduring groups. Their first hit single, “Tonight I Fell In Love,” introduced the world to the irresistible harmonies of The Tokens in 1961. Soon after, the group landed at #1 with their signature song, “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.” In 1994, that song returned to the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart when it was featured in Disney’s The Lion King. It was re-released as part of a unique compilation of twenty of The Tokens' earlier tunes, giving fans a rare opportunity to enjoy many of the songs The Tokens wrote more than thirty years ago, as well as songs popularized by other artists which The Tokens later recorded in their own distinctive style.

Ryan Coleman, a Bucks County native and Penn State Class of 2020 alum, stunned during his blind audition and TV debut onNBC's The Voice on March 11. Coleman’s country-rock rendition of Bill Withers’ “Ain’t No Sunshine” was powerful enough to make pop-country duo Dan+Shay turn their chair.
While learning to play the guitar in second grade, Coleman instantaneously developed a love for music. Growing up on a farm, Coleman mostly listened to country music yet felt a connection to the R&B and soul singer Bill Withers. Although they have different styles of singing, Coleman said he can relate to Withers’ path in the music industry.
With his strong work ethic and love of good country music, the future looks bright for Ryan Coleman.

On debut album Brand New Distance, Cimarron 615 announce themselves as a vibrant new voice with rich Nashville roots. The 10-song record channels a collective heritage that includes Poco, the Flying Burrito Brothers, and Loretta Lynn into a refreshingly contemporary take on harmony-laden, narrative country rock. The album oozes world-class songcraft and innate musicality enhanced with achingly nuanced vocal harmonies, poignant lyrics, and sinewy solos. Marrying bluegrass instrumentation (banjo, mandolin, Dobro) to breezy California country rock, gritty blues, and pop sensibilities, Cimarron 615 effortlessly traverses everything from stripped-down acoustic arrangements to full-on three-guitar rock.
Cimarron 615’s story goes back to country-rock legends POCO and their late frontman Rusty Young, with whom all five members have musical history. When Young passed in 2021, Blue Élan Records head Kirk Pasich organized a tribute concert and album featuring the musicians who would become Cimarron 615 as the house band. The chemistry between the quintet was so palpable that Pasich offered them a record deal as a standalone touring act. The band is comprised of Rick Lonow (Poco, Flying Burrito Brothers) on drums, percussion and vocals; Jack Sundrud (Poco, Great Plains), bass and vocals; Michael Webb (Poco, Hank Williams Jr.), keyboards, mandolin, accordion and vocals; and Ronnie Guilbeau (Flying Burrito Brothers, Griffin-Yancey-Guilbeau, Palomino Road), on guitars and vocals.
Cimarron 615’s astoundingly filler-free Brand New Distance is their ultra-accomplished calling card as a singular new act with a charmingly old soul. It’s a record that lovingly ushers forward a country rock genre too often steeped in nostalgia, offering the tingling interpersonal dynamics and adventurous spirit that only new bands can capture.

A band steeped in the technical proficiency of bluegrass music, their sound draws on blues, country, and folk traditions while being interpreted through the exciting instrumental interplay of an American jamband.
