Thirty years after Sublime's self-titled album became one of the most influential records of the 1990s, the band's story continues with a new generation at the helm.
On this episode of Caught on the Mike, Mike sits down with Jakob Nowell for an honest conversation about family, legacy, music, and the unique experience of carrying one of rock's most recognizable names while forging his own artistic path.
Jakob reflects on growing up surrounded by the legacy of his father, Bradley Nowell, his journey as a musician outside of Sublime, and the unexpected road that led him to joining Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh in writing the next chapter of the band. The conversation explores the emotional process behind Sublime's first new album in nearly three decades, Until the Sun Explodes, and what it means to honor the past while creating something entirely new.
The two also discuss the power of music to connect generations—a theme that resonates deeply as fans who grew up with Sublime now share those same songs with their children.
From stories about Bradley's lasting influence to the future of Sublime, this is a thoughtful and personal conversation about music, family, grief, growth, and the enduring impact of songs that continue to bring people together.
