The Jive Aces

Britain’s Got Talent stars, The Jive Aces, are the UK’s No.1 Jive & Swing band. They are renowned for their high energy Jump Jive music and spectacular stage show and they famously cheered up Simon Cowell on this year’s BGT. They were the first live band to reach the semi-finals of the show, playing an upbeat rendition of “Jungle Book” favourite “I Wanna Be Like You”.

Wearing their iconic yellow suits, they feature songs made famous by greats such as Louis Prima, Bobby Darin, Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong and Sammy Davis Jr as well as some superb originals. This incredibly in-demand sextet has worked with John Travolta, Van Morrison, The Proclaimers, Chick Corea, Status Quo, Kenny Ball, Keely Smith and have performed for HM The Queen on her Diamond Jubilee tour. 

The Jive Aces have had a long and successful career for well over a decade prior to BGT, with highlights including headlining (and selling out) the first ever swing dance at the Royal Albert Hall, headlining at Trafalgar Square for the Paralympics and bringing down the house at thousands of festivals, theatres, dancehalls and major events in over 30 countries. 

They have made hundreds of TV and radio appearances, including recently, a residency on BBC Radio London and TV appearances on “Louis Spence’s Showbusiness”, “Come Dine With Me” and “Good Morning Los Angeles”.

Their uplifting music video, “Bring Me Sunshine”, has become a viral hit with over 2 million views on Youtube and has won a “Telly Award” as well as a number of film festival awards. It has even been prescribed by a doctor in the States as a cure for the blues!
