And the New Bassist for Protest the Hero Is…

… Eric Gonsalves.

Cam McLellan, who has been on bass with Protest ever since original string-slapper Arif Mirabdolbaghi left in 2014, will be returning to his prior duties as front-of-house engineer.

Says the band via Facebook:

Clum has finally gotten his wish of moving back to front of house, and our new pal Eric Gonsalves has taken over bass dooty until he screws up!

Come watch him have a rip!

Here’s some footage of Gonsalves shredding it up in 2013 when he played with The Northern. Certainly seems plenty capable of handling PtH’s intricate low-end parts:
