LOS
ANGELES (MusiCares announcement) - Look at all the Love We Found: A
Tribute to
Sublime is set to be released nationally on June 21, 2005.
Nearly a decade since the release of the multi-platinum Sublime
self-titled juggernaut, an amazing list of artists has convened to
recreate many of these timeless classics. Included on this disc are
previously unreleased tracks from No Doubt; Pennywise; Jack Johnson;
Michael Franti & Spearhead with Gift of Gab; Mike Watt with Petra
Haden and Stephen Perkins; Camper Van Beethoven; G Love; Ozomatli;
Filibuster with Half Pint; Greyboy Allstars; Slightly Stoopid; Avail;
the Ziggens; Bargain Music; Fishbone; Awol One & Abstract Rude.
Tragically,
singer/songwriter/guitarist Bradley Nowell died hours after what would
be the final
Sublime show in May of 1996.
Sublime has sold over 8
million of their self-titled record worldwide and it's still
soundscanning 5000 units a week in the U.S. Subsequent albums went
platinum and the band has a combined worldwide sales-base of nearly 15
million, making them one of the top 10 selling rock bands of the 90s.
The
principals involved in the record have agreed to donate a sizeable
portion of the proceeds from this album to two charities, Milagro
Foundation and MusiCares' MAP Fund. This tribute not only honors
Sublime as an historic artist, but spreads their music to a new
generation. Similarly, Deborah and
Carlos Santana's Milagro Foundation
honors the arts as by bringing music to underprivileged children who
are not fortunate to have music in their everyday lives. Additionally,
MusiCares' MAP Fund, will also benefit. Founded by musician and long
time addiction recovery activist
Buddy Arnold, the fund seeks to
provide access to treatment for all musicians, regardless of their
financial position.
The team assembled for this project is a
partnership between members of the immediate
Sublime family
representing years of management, touring, grass roots marketing and
general career building facets for the group. Look at all the Love� is
being released on indie label and Skunk Records offspring, Cornerstone
Recording Arts Society in conjunction with Silverback Management and
Martian Church and will be distributed nationally. This has been a
deeply personal and incredibly rewarding experience for each of these
entities. Mindful of the band's surviving members Eric Wilson and Bud
Gaugh, the team strives for particular goals. "We want them to just be
able to sit back, relax and hear some great artists paying tribute to
the music they wrote," explains Zach Fischel of Cornerstone R.A.S
