The expanded edition of The House That Bradley Built adds more than 30 never-before-released acoustic covers to create The House That Bradley Built
Deluxe Edition - an impressive album with over 50 covers from the catalog of Bradley Nowell's band, Sublime, performed by 50+ bands. The
Deluxe Edition is out now and on all streaming platforms and as a three-disc CD set. Profits from the album are going to the Nowell Family Foundation to help build Bradley's House, an opioid abuse treatment facility in Southern California named in honor of late
Sublime front man Bradley
James Nowell.
Critical acclaim has followed both albums with coverage appearing in Relix, SPIN, Brooklyn Vegan, and OC
Music News who hailed, "The compilation is a work of love." The San
Diego Union-Tribune commented, "While the album stands as a testament to the many professional and personal lives that
Sublime touched, its potential to truly make a difference for other musicians who are struggling with addiction should prove to be its greatest achievement." So far, the two albums have raised over $25,000 (and counting) for the Nowell Family Foundation's rehab center.
The Nowell Family Foundation has a mission to build and sustain Bradley's House, a 6-bed opioid abuse treatment facility for economically disadvantaged and struggling musicians, and to offer free services while musicians recover. Papa Nowell reflects, "The vision for Bradley's House is to create a place of hope and healing for people in the music industry. A place where creativity can be an outlet for transformation. A place where passion can be a motivation for change. A place where music can be a source of strength." For The House That Bradley Built
Deluxe Edition, musicians donated their time and music to take a stand against opioid abuse and to help support those battling addiction.
Reflecting back, Papa Nowell says, "Bradley's music lives on in the hearts and minds of his fans and fellow musicians. Through the combined effort of everyone who has been touched by his music, Bradley's House will happen. People will be transformed. Lives will be saved. And it will truly be the house that Bradley built. Thank you all for helping to keep my son's music alive."
The compilation is available digitally on all streaming platforms and as a three-disc CD set. The first release of The House That Bradley Built is available as a 180 gram collector's edition two-disc vinyl set.
