Sublime was an American reggae/punk/ska band, active 1988-1996, from Long Beach, California, United States. The band consisted of three members: Bradley Nowell (vocals, guitar), Bud Gaugh (drums), and Eric Wilson (bass guitar). The band achieved mainstream success with their self-titled third album. Sublime can still be heard on radio stations across the US, especially in Long Beach, California. Their songs "Date Rape", "Santeria", "What I Got", "Wrong Way", "Bad Fish" and "Doin' Time" are particularly popular still.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
This is from the acoustic version of this song that is on Sublime's second album "Robbin' in the Hood" I'm pretty sure words and music are Bradley Nowell. Its all barre chords around the middle of the neck.
