Ska alternative rock group, Sublime with Rome, release their final album today. This self-titled album is a culmination of the last fifteen years for the fans as a final farewell honoring the legacy of Sublime.
The band’s frontman Rome Ramirez says, “Please enjoy the final Sublime with Rome album. I debated on whether to release it, but after heartfelt conversations with many of you, I’ve come to realize that the music deserves to be heard. Our fans, you, are at the core of everything we do. Over the past 15 years, we’ve built a beautiful community together, and this album is a testament to that bond.
Last spring, we poured our hearts into the studio crafting songs that had been brewing for almost three years. It was a time of both struggle and revelation, filled with pain, love, and purpose. For me, it was clearly the beginning of the end, and finishing this album marks the end of an era—an emotional conclusion to my journey with Sublime. But I’m hopeful that through the music, you’ll find moments of peace and connection, as I did while creating it.
Love always triumphs, and I hope this album brings a little more of it into your lives.”
In support of the final album, the band is performing nationwide on The Farewell Tour. The touring members for this final leg consist of Rome Ramirez, Joe Tomino on drums, Brian Allen (Miranda Lambert, Zac Brown) on bass, and Gabrial McNair (No Doubt, Green Day) on trombone/keys.

About Sublime with Rome
Sublime with Rome, the ska alternative rock group from California, was formed in 2010 by Rome Ramirez, Eric Wilson, and Bud Gaugh. With fan-favorite hits such as “Wrong Way”, “Santeria”, “Badfish”, “What I Got”, “Caress Me Down”, “40oz to Freedom” and many more, the band’s concerts are pure sing-along enjoyment from the beginning to end.
The band released its debut album, Yours Truly, on July 12, 2011, and broke the top ten on the Billboard 200. The band toured in support of their hit 2019 album Blessings with singles “Wicked Heart” and “Light On” making a splash on alternative radio. Blessings is the band’s third studio album, and it was helmed by Rob Cavallo, the producer behind Green Day, My Chemical Romance, Linkin Park, and more. In 2020 Sublime with Rome dominated the rock and alternative music charts as well as headlining shows in sheds, amphitheaters, and major festivals worldwide.
Sublime with Rome continued to make waves in 2023, having collaborated with Slightly Stoopid on “Cool & Collected,” the first new release from both groups in several years. A long overdue reunion of sorts, making the track an especially meaningful project given Bradley of Sublime first signed Slightly Stoopid to Skunk Records back in 1996. The group celebrated the release with a joint summer tour full of packed shows across 27 cities following a solo headlined sold-out show at Colorado’s iconic Red Rocks.
In late 2023 Sublime with Rome released a brand new EP, Tangerine Skies. Produced by Rome Ramirez, this EP also enlisted the talents from a super roster of friends and family including Neal Avron, Left Coast Sound, Gabrial McNair, BSAMZ, and more!
Currently, Sublime with Rome has over 279 million all-time streams, and over 580k monthly listeners on Spotify. This is in addition to the legacy statistics which include 10M Spotify monthly listeners. “Santeria” remains the top song with over 740 million Spotify streams. This is followed by “What I Got” with over 464 million streams and “Badfish” with over 187 million streams (stats via Spotify). Sublime with Rome’s final self-titled album, recorded at Sonic Ranch, is a celebration of the last fifteen years and is a thank you to the fans for their love and support on this journey.
