LOS ANGELES, Calif. and EAST GRINSTEAD, U.K., Dec. 19, 2022 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Share Christmas favorites<\/a> with a trio of songs performed by\u00a0the UK\u2019s own Jive Aces, the first jive and swing band to reach the final round of\u00a0Britain\u2019s Got Talent. Join them as they unwrap a series of holiday favorites, rolling out a swing version of \u201cJingle Bells.\u201d Sing along with them as they \u201cBring This Christmas to Life.\u201d And remember that\u00a0even if loved ones are far away this holiday season, you can still be together as they perform \u201cChristmas is Where You Are.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMusic is an international language,\u201d says Jive Aces\u2019 lead singer Ian Clarkson. \u201cThrough music, the emotions and feelings we all have in common can unite us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Jive\u2019s upbeat and uplifting music is so catchy and cheerful, that there\u2019s one doctor who routinely prescribes their video of \u201cBring Me Sunshine<\/a>\u201d for depression.<\/p>\n

In addition to their songs in the Scientology Network Holiday Concert, the Jive Aces are also featured in an episode of the original series,\u00a0Meet a Scientologist<\/a>.\u00a0The band describes how they take their style from Harlem swing and jive bands of the 1920s and New Orleans Jazz, which was born in the same era.<\/p>\n

A century later their music still fills dancehall floors with hundreds of fans jitterbugging, energized by the band\u2019s contagious enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what we want to do,\u201d says Clarkson,\u00a0\u201cuse our art, use our music, videos, everything, to make people happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The band members are also well known for their activism against drug abuse and addiction. Seeing first-hand the devastating effects of drugs on so many fellow musicians and artists, the Jive Aces adopted the Scientology-supported Truth About Drugs Campaign<\/a> to promote drug-free living. They reach millions of people through street concerts in the UK, Europe and the U.S. And they spearheaded drug education booklet distribution, performing at the top of double-decker busses that rolled through the 2012 UK Olympics and 2014 Edinburgh Commonwealth Games.<\/p>\n

Get to know the six members of the band through an episode of\u00a0Meet a Scientologist<\/em>\u00a0<\/a>on the Scientology Network. Each episode of this original series provides an in-depth look into the lives of individual Scientologists from the frontiers of modern art, science, sports, entertainment, and many other professions.<\/p>\n

Since launching with a special episode featuring Scientology ecclesiastical leader\u00a0Mr. David Miscavige<\/a>, Scientology Network has been viewed in 240 countries and territories worldwide in 17 languages. Broadcast from\u00a0Scientology Media Productions<\/a>, the Church\u2019s global media center in Los Angeles, the Scientology Network is available on DIRECTV Channel 320 and can be streamed at\u00a0Scientology.tv<\/a>, on\u00a0mobile apps<\/a>\u00a0and via the Roku, Amazon Fire and Apple TV platforms.<\/p>\n

The Scientology religion was founded by author and philosopher L.\u00a0Ron Hubbard. The first Church of Scientology was formed in Los Angeles in 1954 and the religion has expanded to more than 11,000 Churches, Missions and affiliated groups, with millions of members in 167 countries.<\/p>\n
