The
Jive Aces are set to appear at the biggest UK music festivals this summer, and
have just released their 8th studio album ‘Spread a Little Happiness’. They have
established themselves as the UK’s top jive and swing band, and on Friday 18 September play at Chingford in
support of the National Jazz Archive.
The Jive Aces (right) are renowned for
their high energy Jump Jive music (the exciting sound where Swing meets Rock ’n’
Roll) and spectacular stage show. They combine a mixture of fresh arrangements
of swing/jive/R&B classics – songs made famous by such greats as Louis
Prima, Cab Calloway, Bobby Darin, Louis Armstrong, Dean Martin, Big Joe Turner
and Sammy Davis, Jr – along with a selection of superb swinging originals taken
from their studio albums.
Appearing alongside the Jive Aces are
special guests Swing Museum (left). Inspired
by the ‘Hot Club of France’, Swing Museum is a well-known instrumental Jazz
Manouche quartet, playing a delightfully authentic version of this
sophisticated and refined music from the 1930s and 1940s. By combining the
innovative styling of Stéphane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt with
their own foot-tapping original compositions, they make each of their sets
unique.
This concert is on Friday 18 September 2015, and is one of a series during the year to
raise funds to support the work of the National Jazz Archive. It starts at 7.30pm
and tickets cost £17.
The venue is Chingford
Assembly Hall, Station Road, Chingford, London,
E4 7EN (500 m from Chingford Station), with parking close by, and
good access by bus.
