~GENERAL ADMISSION
ABOUT THE BAND:
Don't Push – A Tribute to the Sublime Legacy
Formed in the musical heartbeat of Anaheim, CA, Don't Push arose in March of 2019 through the joint efforts of Brodii (guitar/vocals), Kenny (drums), and Dan (bass/vocals). Each member, practically inseparable in their artistry, have threaded their musical narratives together since their formative days in 1999. While the peculiar magic of musical experimentation led them through various projects, one harmonious constant prevailed; the soulful anthems of Sublime always found a home in their setlist.
Don’t Push stands as a testament—a sincere tribute—to the monumental impact Sublime had on the world of music, and more personally, on Brodii, Kenny, and Dan themselves. With roots entwined in the halcyon high school days when "Sublime" echoed through the corridors, the trio embarked on a quest to recreate not just the sound, but the raw ethos of Sublime's Bradley Nowell, capturing the essence that once painted Sublime'sillustrious sonic canvas.
The essence of Don't Push is beyond mimicking; they breathe life into an authentic Sublime experiencethat anchors on the same grounds—sound, sight, and spirit—so that fans old and new can immerse in a showthat resonates with the intensity Sublime wielded live. It's more than music; it's a cultural curation for those who lived through Sublime's ascendancy and for those who've yet to plunge into the depths of their discography.
Since their breakout with the iconic self-titled album, through the discovery of their earlier work "40oz to Freedom" and "Robbin the Hood", Sublime’s discography has been etched into the very fabric of Don’t Push's identity.
Sublime's alchemy of reggae, ska, punk, and hip-hop isn't just sonic layers for Don’t Push—it's a philosophical guide.
Bradley Nowell's genius—his ability to blend his myriad in uences and concoct something phenomenally fresh yet historically homage-paying—is what Don’t Push admires profoundly. In celebrating Sublime's work,
Don’t Push also shines a light on the constellation of artists that orbited Sublime’s world; legends and luminaries from Tenor Saw to Bob Marley, from The Specials to Bad Brains.
To witness Don't Push on stage is to partake in a ritual of keeping Sublime's ame undimmed, honoring the narrative that Bradley Nowell scripted for his band. Don't Push extends this inheritance, paving the way for the newer generations to discover, cherish, and carry onwards the undeniable force that was—and thanks to tribute acts like Don't Push, continues to be—Sublime's music.
