In December of 2009 ‘Jive For Your Life’ will be celebrating it’s 10th anniversary. This calls for a celebration! They have been busy preparing for a number of months and they made a list of things they want to do during the year.

In July-August the recordings of the new album will start, followed of course by a CD-presentation. Around this release a mini-festival may be organized, possibly with guest musicians, but this is not yet completely clear.

Jive For Your Life was founded in December of 1999. The musicians, Donny Benjaminsz, Jean-Paul Harreman and Friso van Wijck found each other during a jam session in the legendary jazzclub Porgy & Bess in Zeeuws Flemish Terneuzen. The first gig took place in January of 2000, the set list had been made up in a short time and the foundation for a solid live-reputation was laid.

A song by the band can also be found on the CD ‘Golden Blues Collection vol. 3’ released by Belgian blues magazine Back To The Roots. (December 2009, nr. 68)
