Summer is in full swing, and what’s better than throwing your feet up and turning on your favorite reggae songs? Legendary reggae band Sublime’s music catalog is so deep that I recently found myself grooving to their unique reggae rock sound all afternoon long. Here are 5 Sublime songs perfect for summer. So, turn these up, and let the relaxation set in!

For those not lucky enough to catch a copy of one of the most bootlegged Sublime shows (known up until now as Memories), the good folks behind Surfdog Records decided to officially release the recording as $5 At The Door (Live at Tressel Tavern, 1994) on April 21, 2023. 

Jam out to Roots of Creation and Mighty Mystic’s “Roots of Creation” Acoustic Mix. I always vibe with Roots of Creation and their sweet jam style reggae music.

Today’s Merch March feature is the Sublime 40oz. to Freedom University Crewneck. This awesome sweatshirt is the perfect addition to your outfit as you rock out to the new single “$5 At The Door” from Sublime’s new live album “Live at Tressel Tavern, 1994).

Time to get excited for Sublime’s “$5 At The Door (Live At Tressel Tavern, 1994)” album release! The album is due out April 21st via Surfdog Records, and will feature 26 restored and mastered tracks.

O! Jupiter’s debut album, “Illusions of a Cloud” is refreshing, dreamy and good vibe-filled! Although the Chicago-based band is not reggae per se, it’s super cool that they are inspired by the sound, flow and lyrics of reggae artists like Slightly Stoopid, Rebelution, and Sublime.

Chicago-based band, O! Jupiter has dropped a straight jam titled “Wasted Time”. The talented musicians released the feel good single ahead of their debut album, which is due out January 13, 2023. The song has so many good vibes, and I’m especially digging the band’s on point vocals, lyrics and the irie guitar riffs.

Ventura, California’s Overgrown (aka Daniel Alvarez) blends reggae and punk rock in the jamming new single, “I Don’t Mind”. I’m absolutely loving this laid back tune, and especially appreciate Overgrown’s talented guitar showcased throughout the song and the clever lyrics. The hook is especially catchy and Overgrown is able to highlight his on point vocals - both singing and hip flow wise.

Dirty Heads, Bryce Vine, and Eric Wilson of Sublime’s new band, Spray Allen, will play San Diego’s Petco Park on June 4th. This will be an epic show that you do not want to miss! Bryce Vine will also perform a set of his epic brand of good vibes filled music.

The eyes of the reggae world are all on Long Beach this weekend for the 2022 Cali Vibes festival. The community's best artists, producers, and creatives will come together with fans underneath the California sun to celebrate the music, culture, and ethos of the beautiful genre we all hold so dear. As the date approaches, perhaps what we are most excited for is the high level of musicianship that will be on display all weekend; and to be more specific, the epic guitarists that will be making strings sing and setting fretboards on fire on the Cali Vibes stages. For anybody that loves the greatest instrument that has and ever will be created (bias admitted), these are the guitarists you won't want to miss at Cali Vibes 2022!

Reggae and punk rock music have long been intertwined. Both cultures embody a DIY attitude and a rejection of social norms that divide and oppress, and though the exact expression of this rebel mentality and promotion of a more equal and inclusive community differ between the two, the common ethos they share has led to amazing music combining the genres for decades. For many reggae fans their initial introduction to the genre came through punk; whether it be from classic punkers like The Clash, third wave ska bands like Reel Big Fish and The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, or current artists blending reggae and punk such as Slightly Stoopid. Such a musical journey is shared by this reviewer as well, with my personal introduction to reggae starting with the punk band NOFX, which led me to bands like Sublime and The Expendables, further leading to Rebelution, and from there the whole genre opened up before me. I am far from alone in this experience, one which I especially share with my fellow West Coast Americans. 

The combination of punk and reggae is far from over, and there are amazing new artists continuing this legacy that you should be aware of.The combination of punk and reggae is far from over, and there are amazing new artists continuing this legacy that you should be aware of.
