I’m looking for new students to come and learn the saxophone, in South East London and beyond. Look, I’ve even made a flyer…
See you there? Advance tickets for October 5th are available from the Vortex website, and the Manchester Freedom Principle gig on October 7th is £5 on the door.
Just a quick post to say thanks for coming, if you were at either of the Anton Hunter ‘Article XI’ gigs. We had a fantastic time and both performances went really well! We just need to sit back and wait for Anton to organise the world tour now. Both gigs were recorded, so hopefully those will see the light of day fairly soon…in the mean time here are a few photos:

The Manchester gig… (by Peter Fay in challenging lighting!).
The London gig… (by Cara Courage – and there are lots of other great shots from the gig on her Flickr page)
Next on the horizon for me is the launch of ‘LUME Presents…’ at the Vortex this Sunday. Looking forward to that! See below for the full listings on a new lovely poster from Peter Beatty:
A brilliant poster has appeared on Facebook for the Trio Riot/Ripsaw Catfish gig in Manchester on 26th March. Check it out. The gig is on 26th March at Dulcimer Bar in Chorlton. It’s going to be amazing to share the bill with such a great band!
On April 22nd I’ll be playing in a three duos gig at Servant Jazz Quarters, Dalston. There will be sets from Colin Webster (saxophones) and Graham Dunning (turntable, mixer and dubplates), Ti/om (Tom Ward on woodwinds and Tim Fairhall on bass), and then Anton and I will do one as Ripsaw Catfish. I’ve made a poster with a leafy kaleidoscope, in case you need a bit more persuasion to attend:
After neglecting the blog for a month or so, this is a quick post to announce some upcoming Quadraceratops gigs:
24th June at Jazz In The Round @ The Cockpit, Marylebone. I’m very excited about this one…
1st August at LUME, a(nother) brand new night that I’m setting up with my good friend the sax player Dee Byrne. The gig is upstairs at Hundred Crows Rising, near Angel, in a really nice room where we’ll be hosting great music every Thursday starting July 4th. Should be fun…I’ll do a proper post about LUME soon.
6th October at Jazz at the Union Chapel Bar, a new afternoon gig (3pm) run by the esteemed Mr Andrew Button of The Button Band. This will be the first EVER Quadraceratops afternoon gig!
And finally, just in case anyone reads this post straight after I finish writing it, a reminder that Madwort Sax Quartet is playing TONIGHT at Ryan’s Bar in Stoke Newington!
