Many years ago Jackson Sloan was the driving force on the Jump Jive circuit with his top band "RENT PARTY". Featuring Alan Savage, Steve Weston, Andy Stevens, Laurence Parry and John Wilmot, they built a solid reputation in the UK as well as in Europe, topping the bill on countless Festivals and in many clubs, they appeared on many TV shows and released four singles and two albums.

In 1988 RENT PARTY broke up and Jackson found himself working in many different musical areas. He recorded the 12" dance floor classic "Night in Tunisia" with DJ and Latin percussionist 'Snowboy'. In 1989 Jackson recorded a solo album called "Old Angel Midnight" with top British jazz musicians. This received great response from fans and critics alike, the album has been re-released recently in Japan and Hungry and has been very successful.

After spending many years in the jazz field Jackson has decided to get back to his roots of Jump-Jive, Blues and Boogie-Woogie R&B so he phoned drummer, Alan Savage, and asked if he would be interested in getting a band together. Alan jumped at the chance, having had great times together in Rent Party, and knowing that with the right musicians behind him, Jackson would once more become a driving force in the current Jump-Jive, Swing, Boogie-Woogie World.

After trying several different musicians we have put together a band of some of the finest players in the UK:

On Guitar, from New Zealand, we have Paul Garner. He has played with the finest musicians in New Zealand and in Blues bands since he was 15, his father is a Blues musician and he believes his love for music may have begun even before he was born!

On Bass we have Pete Pritchard one of the best Rock n Roll bass players around, he has toured for years with Scotty Moore, Alvin Lee, The Avengers and many others.

On Piano we have a new talent in James Lunn. He is a fine piano player, only having played with bands in his local area, and says that this is his first serious band.

On Tenor Saxophone we have Albie Green, Albie has worked with many top musicians including Hubert Sumlin and has worked with many bands including The Avengers and Red Beans and Rice, he is a great player.

On Tenor Saxophone we have John Willmot, John was with Jackson and Alan in Rent Party and has been with the James Taylor Quartet for many years playing with many top artists.

On drums, myself, Alan Savage. I have been fortunate to have worked with Freddie Mercury, Joe Jackson and Alison Moyet in the pop field and Hubert Sumlin, Paul Lamb & the Kingsnakes and Eugene "Hideaway" Bridges in the blues field.
