We observed the INTEGRAL/IBIS GRB 160629A (Gotz et al., GCN 19621) with 
the AMI Large Array at 15 GHz on 2016 Jul 01.23, Jul 02.23, Jul 04.19, 
and Jul 08.19 (UT) as part of the 4pisky program. We detect a transient 
radio source consistent with the SAO RAS location (Sokolov et al., GCN 
19623) at 219+/-49 uJy and 128+/-37 uJy in the first two epochs, and 
obtain 3sigma upper limits of 135 uJy and 243 uJy in the later two epochs.

We thank the AMI staff for scheduling these observations. The AMI-GRB 
database is a log of all GRB follow up observations with the AMI, and is 
available at http://4pisky.org/ami-grb/.
