AboutMatt Maguire Expertise I am new to allexperts, but have plenty of knowledge and experience in the realm of Sublime. Guarantee: you will receive an answer within 2 days of posting the question -- I have no feedback so far and would like to build some.
I can answer most questions about the band, the significance of the lyrics, the show dates,
the unreleased albums and tracks, misinformation, and, above all, I am an expert on their
influences and related music.
Experience I have been a huge fan for 14 years, I ran a server which distributed Sublime's live and unreleased music 24/7 for 4 years, I have answered questions about the band daily for years on their old website, and I know some of the largest collectors in the world. I created the 5 CD bootleg "Rewind Selector" which documents the influences of Sublime and was the topic of a Spin Magazine interview.
Education/Credentials I did not study music in college, but I majored in English, so I can write a clear response. I worked as a research assistant in the past, so I have skills in research if I need to figure out an answer.
Past/Present Clients Sublime fans aren't my clients, but I have distributed swag and rare tracks to all those who want them for years at no cost.

Question So this song has been floating around the internet for plenty of years now. The only info I could get out of any source is that supposedly it is by Slightly Stoopid and Sublime (which I doubt). I was wondering you knew if that was true or if not, then who it is actually by. Thanks a lot,
-Tony
Answer Although emulating Sublime's sound, it's definitely not Sublime or Brad singing. It doesn't sound at all like Miles or Kyle, so it's not SS singing, but I think it might be the group that copies both off the big island of Hawaii -- Pepper. I had never heard this song until I just downloaded it now, so don't take my word, but you can bank on the fact that it's not Sublime or SS.
