Show notes

This Week on Dopey Tuesday! We are joined by Jakob Nowell, the creative force of Jakobs Castle also a drug addict in recovery! Jakob was born into SoCal Rock and Roll Royalty. His father Bradley Nowell was the lead singer, songwriter and guitar player in legendary So-Cal punk/reggae/alternative legendary band SUBLIME. Bradley tragically died at age 28 when Jakob was only a 1 year old. Now, Jakob is 28 and is the new lead singer and guitar player for SUBLIME.

Jakob tells his whole story of drug addiction and recovery and what it was like with the pain, pleasure and pressure of being a musician in Southern California and the intensity of stepping into the shoes of his dead in order to be a ‘custodian of the legacy’ of SUBLIME!

It is a heavy talk with a super talented singer, songwriter and guitar player in long term recovery!
