San Salvador (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
San Salvador is an incarnation of the band known as Sounds Like Chicken. This happend due to the disbanding of Sounds Like Chicken which achieved great success in the Australian Ska and Christian music scene.
San Salvador was formed with all former members of Sounds Like Chicken in it's final stage apart from Natalie Parker and Nyall Dawson in addition to these members was also Paul McCasker.

[edit] Announcement of San Salvador
Sounds Like Chicken were the first to give word on the formation of San Salvador. Member of San Salvador Nat Kitingan was interviewed on 100.9BFMs Undaground Radio about the new band and asked what the name would be. Reluctantly Nat said it was not final but San Salvador was one of the names that is being thought about.
About a month later this was officially announced as the official name of the band on Sounds Like Chicken's myspace page.
The Myspace Announcement:
