   About James Gardiner-Bateman
I'm a 23 year old saxophonist from Bristol. I am currently in my second year at the Royal Academy of Music in London, studying on the Jazz course directed by Gerard Presencer. I'm taught by Martin Speake, Iain Ballamy, Will Vinson, Nick Smart, Tom Cawley, Pete Churchill, Barack Schmool and Nikki Iles. In London, I currently play with Kubla Khan, The Floating Points Ensemble and the Tom Stone Nonet as well as the following outfits around Bristol and the Southwest : The Resonation Big Band, Hélélé, the Keith Tippett Octet, Edenheight, World Government, the Andy Hague Quintet, the Andy Hague Big Band, the Mike Willox Quartet and Melo Park (Kosheen's Sian Evans' new acoustic project) - playing keyboards that is. I also play alongside top UK trombonist Dennis Rollins in his band, "Badbone and Co." As a session musician, i frequently record with UK Drum 'n' Bass/Jungle producer Roni Size within various projects and formats including the legendary Drum and Bass act, "Reprazent."

More oil. Yup. Sounds like a plan. Who knows, might have made getting a home a little easier but I'm just spitballing there. Hmmmm. Seems like that flashing red STOP YOU FUCKING STUPID PRICK sign was quite significant really. Ah well. Nothing a few thousand pounds can't put right anyway, ey!? Like nothing happened. What's a few grand to people like us? Made 60quid on the gig and all. FUCKS SAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  
Yeh man but apart from that really enjoyed the gig! You and josh absolutely obliterated the chophouse, caught me with my pants down on some of those tunes mind.
