Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar.

ABOUT

We are a gigging Ska band on the lookout for a guitarist.

Backing vocals aren't essential but nice to have.

There's 7 of us already and we gig reasonably frequently, every 2-3 weeks normally but have a few more in the summer. Our gigs are a full of energy and a lot of fun, we have a good time and get really good feedback from the crowd. There's lots of messing around and you get a chance to show your personality.

We practice in Earlsfield Thursday nights, live around south London/Surrey. Aged from 20s to 50s, all a bit lefty as you may expect from a ska/reggae band, everyone gets on well, we like a pint (and an unhealthy amount of crisps) after practice, during practice and occasionally together outside of practices.

We're also building up a network of other instruments, as you can imagine with 8 of us it's hard to get 100% commitment to every gig.

You can find us on a certain social media platform as JumpstartsBand, worth a look to see our gig schedule and videos so you know what you're getting into.
