   About Nathan Bray
Hi everyone, Well FINALLY my new album is ready. you can check it out at www.nathanbrayjazz.com for a listen. I've been playing trumpet since I was about 10 years old and I love all of the work that I do. I've been really lucky to have the chance to work for some great musicians like international stars Quincy Jones, McCoy Tyner, Oscar Peterson, and Bill Bruford to British bandleaders Guy Barker, Kenny Wheeler, Stan Tracey, and Tim Garland. Singers include, Tony Bennett, Jack Jones, Tony Hadley, and Lulu, Jamie Cullum, and Will Young. I've worked with loads of Big Bands including West Germany's WDR Big Band, the Colin Towns Mask Orchestra, Kenny Wheeler Big Band, The Ronnie Scott's Big Band, X factor Big Band, The Pop Idol Big Band, Echo's of Ellington, and loads of others. I really enjoy arranging as well and over the years I've written arrangements for Will Young, Kelly Clarkson, Emma Bunton and more recently, for my own band.

Ah! Glad to see you got home safe. It took us ages to get home as the traffic was shit and we had to stop at the pub and the kebab house on our way! Fat bastards that we are!
See you soon.
Kenny.

Gutted I missed it too - still it's this 'earning a living' rubbish that gets in the way.
Anyhoo, here's to next weekend's Swansea shenanigans - more dancing, drinking and crying to come I think, not least when the agony stick's out!

Bye the way, great Big Band and marvelous Lead-trumpet-player here!!!

Hi Nathan!

Thanks for Your compliments!!!
My Band Shreefpunk will play in London in "Leonards EC1" on Monday. It´s an out of the way venue - ie they don't have a regular crowd - it relies on word of mouth.
If you know anybody in London who is interested in my music, too, please tell them about it!
Thanks a lot and CU maybe on Monday?!
You find the adress of the club on our myspace-site!

Best regards,
Matthias

Thanks for adding me Nathan. I'm still doing monitors for the orchestra, bit better than the old SOBBS days!

Hello stranger - It would be great to hook up and recreate that "Terry Peter's" Big Band sound! Well, maybe a slightly more refined version of it! X
Rob Egerton

Hey, Nath! Thanx for adding me. 'If I were A Bell' sounds amazing. I would mudwrestle my own grandmother to be playing that sort of stuff every night (wouldn't we all?). Forget G M! Take it easy!
