Jump band formed in the 1980's in seaside resort of Southend in the UK. They had lineup changes but settled on Jackson Sloane, vocals; John Willmott, tenor sax; sister Chris Willmott, alto; Laurence Parry, trumpet; Steve Weston, piano; Andy Stevens, guitar; Tony Wilsonham, bass; Neil Robinson, drums; all this lineup were 60s children and as a young group were searching back behind disco for some urban roots music, wearing zoot-suits with wide ties and describing their stuff as '50s R&B/jazz dance music, influenced by , Louis Jordan, Big Joe Turner among others. Played at Cork Jazz Festival '84, played Kool Jazz Festival and gigs at the Lone Star NYC '85 as well as constant touring in England. Southend Music Venues
