Thanks to the recent reunion of Sublime’s Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh with late frontman Bradley Nowell’s son, Jakob, the legendary SoCal group is officially back together and booked for a number of upcoming performances. Now, the band has revealed that new music may also be on the way.
The hint arrives via a new SPIN interview with Gaugh and Nowell, in which the two were asked what about their plans following their upcoming set at Coachella. “We’ll see how it goes from the rehearsals, but I’m pretty certain we’re gonna see some music coming out with this project,” Gaugh said.
As for Nowell, he didn’t address any recording, but expressed excitement for Sublime’s upcoming shows and a desire to “add to the legacy of this band.” Looking ahead, he said he’s “hoping to get to those alternative scenes and work with cool alternative artists.”

As for Coachella, Nowell shared a fun idea involving the festival’s other major reunion headliner: No Doubt. “Hopefully we can get Gwen Stefani to come up with us to perform [her 1994 duet with Sublime] ‘Saw Red.’” To that, Gaugh said “I mean, come on. It seems like a no-brainer.”
The reunited Sublime first came together last December at a benefit for Bad Brains’ H.R. This year, the band will play at Coachella and the inaugural Brightside Music Festival. Grab tickets here.
