Recommended: Sublime with Rome w/ Soja, Common Kings, Seranation @ Red Rocks
To kick things off on Monday night, Sublime with Rome is returning to Red Rocks. Sublime is responsible for anthemic songs such as “Santeria” and “What I Got” both released back in 1996, the same year the band lost their frontman, Bradley Nowell. Fast forward over 10 years later, and Sublime is still keeping Nowell’s spirit alive with singer Rome taking lead. Fellow artists Soja, Common Kings and Seranation are on the bill for Monday night as well.
