Sublime with Rome began in 2009 when Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh, the bassist and drummer from Sublime, started playing with a singer and guitarist named Rome Ramirez. At first they went out as Sublime, but the estate of the band's late frontman, Bradley Nowell, mounted a legal challenge over the trademarked name, and in January 2010 they became Sublime with Rome.
The sound was what you'd expect and what the crowds came for: sun-baked Long Beach reggae rock, ska-punk bounce and a little hip-hop swagger, with Ramirez's easy-going voice riding on top. They played the Smokeout Festival in 2009, toured in 2010 and put out Yours Truly in July 2011, with the breezy "Panic" and "Take It or Leave It" carrying it to alternative radio. Gaugh left at the end of that year and Josh Freese took over on drums for Sirens in 2015, home of the title track and "Wherever You Go".
Carlos Verdugo replaced Freese in 2017, and Blessings, produced by Rob Cavallo, followed in 2019. The Tangerine Skies EP came out in 2023, but barely a month later Ramirez said he'd be leaving to go solo. Wilson announced he was out in February 2024, a farewell tour followed, and the band was finished by the end of the year.
