The Jive Aces are a six-piece UK-based, swing band that was formed in 1989. They were Britain's Got Talent semi-finalists in 2012. They have released 11 albums, as well as compilations, EPs and singles and have performed at numerous music festivals. The band was founded by vocalist Ian Clarkson, drummer Peter Howell, bassist Ken Smith and saxophonist "Big" John Fordham. The four met in East London jive and jazz clubs.
The band was founded by vocalist Ian Clarkson, drummer Peter Howell (who went to school with Ian in Billericay), bassist Ken Smith and saxophonist "Big" John Fordham. The four met in East London jive and jazz clubs. They cut their teeth street entertaining and were soon being offered shows in UK and Europe. After several years of touring the band with various other musicians, the four met Alex Douglas (trombone, bongos, blues harp, washboard) and Vince Hurley (piano) who became permanent members. Grazia Clarkson, the band's publicist, has also become a regular performing member playing several featured songs on accordion.
The band is recognized as one of the top swing bands in the world, something borne out by their extensive international travel (the band has performed in over 40 countries). The June 2015 issue of Vintage Rock magazine described them as the "UK's number one jive and swing band".

He’s on a mission from God, spreading the good word about the blues.... love this one ! I like the brushes at the start.... !
I just received message from the original drummer in this band , saying I did a nice job. It will be in the comments section.
Thanks 🙏
@ that’s awesome!
@@dwstoeckel4740 They are from England
Wonderful swing taste .. I like it so much... 👏❤❤
@@DSSaxophone Thanks 🙏 just having so fun with my new cheap hat , lucky to find this cool 😎 song 🥁🎵👍
Hey there, thanks for covering my song and drum part. And good job!
Wow 🤗 and thank you so much for reaching out to me. I go searching utube for songs to play and in about 99 % of the time I’m finding new songs that I’ve never heard of before, but they catch my attention.
I’m 70 years old and was a heavy rock drummer in my teens and twenties, I could never play blues or swing back then but I’ve picked it up in the last year or two. If my parents could see me now 🤣🤣🤣
Everyday I go searching for new material and love the songs with the toe tapping beat, one of my regular subscribers told me to buy a fedora hat and I had just picked up this from Party City, your song 🎵 came up and I just had to give it a try.
I’m really not a brush player, so it’s totally faked, the hardest thing was switching to drumsticks. You are the second person that has mentioned and thanked me for playing their song 🎵 THANKS AGAIN. 😊
Wonderful cover man! Sounds great! Love those brushed in this one! 🤘🤘🤘
@@3L3V3NDRUMS Thanks 🙏 concerning I really don’t play brushes, it came out well 😎
Wow 😮 nice cute song!!!!!!! I love it Kenny!!!!!!!! Pulling out the brushes!!!!!!! Very nice shuffle!!!!!!!!! I loved how you changed from brushes to sticks all of a sudden!!!!!!!!!! Cool touch!!!!!!!! And yes,,,, I heard that 8th note triplet fill!!!!!! Fully watched 3:00 fully enjoyed!!!!!! Beautiful performance 🎭 as always 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
@@bryandrums32 Yes the Old SWITCH A ROO from brushes to sticks, LIKE THAT DIDN’T take twenty tries 🤣🤣🤣
I could have used some smoke and mirrors effects now. 8th 🎵 note triplet, now that must of been a mistake, I don’t know 🤷🏼♂️ how to do those things 😱😱😱, YES you didn’t even mention my new Genuine Imitation Fedora Hat, that I got at Party 🎉 City 😎😎😎
Thank goodness I found this song last night, sure came handy, oh the brushes, they are expensive ones that know how to play by themselves 😊
@ I mentioned your hat in the last video!!!!!! Don’t worry Ken,,,, I know what you were wearing lol,,,, looking good bro!!!!!! You look like the blues brothers!!!!!! A little bit lol 😆
@ , Yes you did , but this is a New Different hat. Yes I can see the Blues Brothers connection 😎
I on a mission from God 😇
@@The-Tired-Drummer yes!!!!!!! 🙌 haha 🤣,,,, your funny Kenny!!!!!! Nice new hat 🎩
Dig that swing thing with the piano and whistling in the background Kenny! You have picked some outstanding toe tapping selections.
@@edwardkaminsky8142 , Thanks 🙏 it’s my first priority when searching for songs 🎵 looking for the toe tapping songs.
Like I’ve mentioned before I don’t know 99% of these songs I’m playing, but searching through utube I keep finding more and more.
This background was a gift from a friend, I have had many positive feedback from people who like it, too me it’s a little too flashy for my taste, but it certainly fits in to the mood for many songs. I switch between both of my choices. It’s just a matter of opening or closing the curtains.
hehe cool ! very nice cover Ken !!
Thanks 🙏 having some fun, and found this great song 🎵 to play wearing my cheap hat and sunglasses 😎
Great song choice, Kenny, and your wardrobe accessories are rockin’ the house. I really like the early brushwork before you went with the woodwork. This is a real toe tapper, my snoozy friend. Thanks for sharing.❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Thanks 🙏 I’m sure happy I found this song 🎵 the night before, so I got to wear my new Ginuwine imitation fedora hat.
This time I wore prescription sunglasses 😎 that I could actually see out of.
I can’t call myself a brush man for drumming 🥁 so I just set the brushes to autopilot. Along with some smoke and mirrors 😊
In the end I can say I’m happy with this song, visually and in sound quality 😊 All my naps paid off 😊
@ I thought it was a very fun performance.❤️🙏
@ , yes it was funny and cool 😎 the song was perfect. It hasn’t gone over well, not many people watch it.
I haven’t played today yet and it’s 8:25 pm so I’m not expecting anything today, one of my too tired days again.
Noice!
@@jiveaces Thanks 🙏 so much 👏
Very nice drum cover . You did very well using the brushes while wearing the nice black hat and dark glasses.
@@THE-BENDER-BEAT Thanks 🙏 it’s hard to believe that I’d be playing songs 🎵 like this 😱 when we first met I was playing Creedence Clearwater and oldies. I remember when I ordered the brushes and had no clue how to really play them.
Yes my background came in handy for this song 🎵 and my Fedora hat and sunglasses 😎, I’m actually so happy I found this song last night too.
hey buddy!! ahahahahahahaha!!!! THERE IT IS THERE IT IS!!!!!!! YESSSSSS I LOVE IT !!!! 🎩 👓!!! PERFECT 👌!!!!! oh my gosh its great!!! WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE MY FRIEND!!!!! LOVE THE GIT UP!!! def cooool 😎 keep doin it !! its absolutely PERFECT!!! you look sooo cool it adds such an element to the style you playin it perfect 👊🙋
Can you believe the shit 💩 I’m playing these days 🤣🤣🤣 , yes my new fake fedora hat from Party City 🎉
Lucky I found this song the other night, 😮 I’m searching utube right now for more songs 🎵
@@The-Tired-Drummer LMAO 🤣
Awesome Ken ... Love these songs you're finding. Brushes to sticks, that was slick 😎. I like the backdrop too ... your whole setup is fantastic. I've been playing Poor Man Blues, I think you have me hooked . Thanks Ken
@@TimWillard2235 Thanks 🙏 and I’m happy you’re playing Poor Man Blues, it’s a great song to practice with because of its simplicity.
I have to be honest with you, I’m really not a brush player, so I’m just totally faking it 🤪 but in this case it works fine. Switching from the brushes to sticks was the hardest part of the song 🎵.
It too me many tries to finally get this acceptable version, I ended up putting a snare drum 🥁 beside the hi hat stand to help with the transition.
I did a little video effect, to try to hide 🙈 a bit of the stick switch, but now watching the video it wasn’t necessary.
This background along with a few other things in the room were gifts 🎁
The background is cool 😎 by it’s a little flashy for me, although it does work out well at times, like this song 🎵, I prefer the drapes closed most of the time. But I do get some people telling me they like the music instruments 🎸 background 👍
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark...
and we're wearing sunglasses. Jake: Hit it.
