SUBLIME WITH ROME
SET TO ENTER STUDIO TO RECORD NEW MATERIAL
BAND SET FOR ADDITIONAL FALL DATES
At the end of September (this week), SUBLIME WITH ROME (SWR) will take some time off from their demanding tour schedule to head to Sylvia Massy’s Radiostar studio in Weed, CA where they’ll begin recording new music for their highly anticipated 2011 release. The group will work on new songs they’ve been performing live on the road this summer, including “Panic”–the trio’s first original single as SUBLIME WITH ROME which debuted on national TV this past June on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Watch the clip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBxn5FK7Cdg&feature=channel.
Drummer BUD GAUGH and bass player ERIC WILSON–founding members of Sublime–with new frontman, singer/guitarist ROME, have spent the last year reintroducing themselves and the music of Sublime, one of the most successful and influential alternative rock bands of all time, to fans across the country as SUBLIME WITH ROME (SWR). Outside of their slated studio time, the trio will continue to bring together friends and fans with more tour dates including stops in Norfolk, VA, Myrtle Beach, SC, Houston and Corpus Christi, TX and Bakersfield, CA (see full itinerary below).
They will also make two night appearances in Santa Cruz, CA and Portland, OR. In between their U.S. dates, SUBLIME WITH ROME will travel out of the country for concerts in Amsterdam, Manchester and London in the U.K. as well as Sao Paolo, Brazil.
Since debuting at last years October’s Cypress Hill SmokeOut, SUBLIME WITH ROME have astonished music audiences across the country while breaking live records. Check out some comments from concert promoters:
From Peter Ore of Live Nation Denver:
“I’d probably have to say that my biggest surprise show of the year was Sublime with Rome at Red Rocks. After they sold out the Fillmore a few months earlier and had all 3600 fans singing every word, I knew it would be a great show musically and I thought they would easily build on that success for their show at Red Rocks. I could never have predicted that it would turn out to be the overwhelming success that it was. Sales were moving along quite well throughout the whole campaign and I thought I would be able to hit my projection on the show. However, in the final 48 hours, the ticket sales just completely caught fire and were the hottest tickets of the summer. We wound up selling another 4500 tickets in that final push and ended up with what was just an unbelievable turn out as fans came out in droves to show their support and love for one of the all-time greatest “bands of summer.”
Ethan Levinson of AEG in Boca Raton, FL adds:
“It was the first sellout at The Sunset Cove Amphitheater in South Florida (Boca Raton) and the crowd response was better than I could have imagined. It has been a long time since I have seen people that excited about a show. Even the principal on the alternative rock station's morning show said that giving away a pair of meet-n-greet tickets to Sublime with Rome was the coolest prize he has given away in over 10 years of broadcasting. The band was very gracious on stage and played an amazing set including just about everything that the crowd wanted to hear. You can imagine a sold out crowd of 5000 people with growing anticipation waiting for SWR to hit the stage and then the deafening scream when they played those first 7 notes as they opened with ‘Date Rape.’ Epic is the only word I can use to describe it."
