Los Salvadores need a new bass player.

We are based near Maidstone, Kent, and you must be able to get to practice a couple of times a week.

We play a unique mix of styles including punk, ska, jazz, hardcore and anything else we feel like doing.

Basically if it's fast and dancable, it's Los Salvadores.

We're playing several big festivals this year and have a good following in Kent and London. We’ve done a national tour and are looking to do more in the next few months.

We've also been played on Radio 1 a few times and are booked into the awesome Outhouse Studio (Funeral For A Friend, Enter Shikari, Architects) in August to record some more tunes.

We want someone who can play bass to a good standard and write their own parts. We are very open to different and interesting styles.

We write and arrange as a band, and you would be free to get involved in that too if you want.

We practice at least three hours on Sunday evenings (we have our own free practice space) and often meet for writing sessions or extra practice during the week.

The band aims to gig at least once a week, but normally you can expect to be playing two or three shows in that time. We realise this is a high level of commitment on top of practicing.

Obviously we take the band seriously, but we have a lot of fun doing it, and genuinely love what we do.

We also have a cool van to drive places in.

Check us out at http://www.lossalvadores.co.uk or http://www.myspace.com/lossalvadores

If you want to get involved, email Marf at enquiries@lossalvadores.co.uk

Los Salvadores is an equal opportunities band.

Hey mate thanks for the reply!

Well, I guess it would be a problem if you had to carry your gear on the train to get to practice ;o)

The place we practice is also about 5 miles from any train station.

Would it work for you if we had a gig in Kent on a Thursday and had to be there by half 5?

If you think you'll be able to do it then post back - we haven't sorted any time for auditions yet but we'll keep you posted Smile
