Hold onto your Cali Punk roots, music lovers! Get ready for a flash back because later this month, the surviving maestros of Sublime, Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh, are joining forces with none other than Jakob Nowell, the prodigious offspring of the late and legendary Bradley Nowell. They’re not just teaming up for a regular gig; it’s a full-blown, glitter-infused, benefit extravaganza to support Bad Brains‘ vocal virtuoso, H.R.
This is the first-ever cosmic alignment of Sublime and the Nowell heir. This show also marks the grand return of Bud Gaugh to the Sublime stage since he bid adieu to the band in 2011. Talk about a musical reunion that’s been a decade in the making!
Now, for those not in the know, Bradley Nowell, the OG singer-guitarist extraordinaire of Sublime, left this earthly stage back in ’96 when Jakob was just a teeny-tiny 11-month-old rockstar in the making. Fast forward to today, and Jakob’s a solo sensation, strutting his musical stuff under the moniker Jakobs Castle. Meanwhile, Wilson’s still rocking it out with the singer Rome Ramirez in Sublime With Rome.
This powerhouse trio won’t be dropping the Sublime bomb for this particular performance. Oh no, it’s a special one, folks! Mark your calendars for December 11th because the Teragram Ballroom in Los Angeles is about to witness history in the making.
Joining this sonic fiesta are members from the elite squads of Fishbone, Mr. Bungle, Beastie Boys, Slayer, and more. It’s an all-star bonanza that’ll make your musical heart skip a beat.
So, gear up for a night of pure, unadulterated musical magic, where the beats are funky, the vibes are sassy, and the legends come together for one heck of a benefit show. Let the countdown to Dec. 11th begin – it’s gonna be a party you won’t want to miss!
