Jump ‘n’ Jive Big Band

We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, comprised of 14 to 19 professional musicians (trumpets, trombones, saxophones, and full rhythm section – drums, bass, guitar, piano) as well as conductor & singers. The band members donate their time and talents toward our mission and purpose.

Jump ‘n’ Jive Big Band was founded in 2008 by Jerry Beck.  Initially, rehearsals were originally held at Xavier University through the generosity of Ph.D. Kaleel Skeirik, Professor of Music.
