7pm-8pm: Jakobs Castle - As the son of Sublime’s legendary frontman Bradley Nowell, there is no denying that Jakob is influenced by his father’s music and legacy. However, is anything but a nostalgic rehash. Instead their songs are remarkably cutting-edge while still retaining the keen sense of melody that endeared Jacob’s father’s music to millions of people all over the world. Nowell has described the project as “mixing California’s past with the fresh mystery of internet underground culture” and that’s a good place to start.

That dichotomy between punk’s past and pop’s future lies at the core of these songs. From the ska-inspired, laid-back groove of the opener “Supervillian” to the radio-friendly electro-pop of “Lights Out,” the album references Nowell’s pedigree while keeping his eyes toward the future. He sees the latest generation of bands like Jakobs Castle and 100 Gecs as being the next generation of acts to carry on that tradition of creativity, while still building on musical motifs that are universal to listeners across genres. Just wait for this amazing headliner band experience to finish up the second annual Cape Rad 2024!
