New Sublime song, a collaboration with Stick Figure, features both Bradley and Jakob Nowell
Bradley Nowell and Jakob Nowell both sing on the new Sublime song, a collaboration with SoCal reggae act Stick Figure, bassist Eric Wilson, and drummer Bud Gaugh — were jamming in Willie Nelson’s Pedernales Studio in Austin, Texas, when they broke into an improvised, half-formed song that bootleggers would later callFrontman Bradley Nowell, who would die of an overdose in May of that year, wasn’t taking the song entirely seriously, adding multiple lyrics about his “anus.
The song is officially credited to Sublime x Stick Figure, since Woodruff built the track from samples of that “Eireen” session. He began work on it several years ago, before the band revived itself with Jakob, after band associate Michael “Miguel” Happoldt brought him the “Eireen” multitracks. Jakob added his vocals in January, well before the Coachella performance. “It was like, OK, now that this is coming together, why don’t we release this song, but let’s get Jake on there,” says Gaugh.
“We are blessed that we still have all these old recordings and that we were able to stumble upon an outtake that has been sitting there waiting for all these years,” Wilson says in an e-mail to. “They say timing is everything, and I think they were right! It’s super awesome to hear Brad and Jakob singing side by side on the same track. I’m sure this song is gonna set the mood for the summer.
The renewed Sublime is playing festival dates throughout the year. “We’re just going to keep getting more comfortable with each other and learning how to play off each other,” says Jakob. “It’s mind-blowing to see how Sublime is such an important and formative band for so many people out there.”
