Act profile

South Wales band The Aces formed in 2007 with Clare Cunningham (Vocals) and Jamie Hiscox (Guitar).
2009 saw the addition of Kris Gibbins (Bass) and Sam Greetham (Drums) to complete the band’s line up.

The band are based in South Wales where three of their members (Jamie, Kris and Sam) originate from.
Clare is originally from Ireland.

The band have won critical and fan acclaim since their real emergence into the public eye over past two years and it's their fresh, driven sound and animated stage presence that keep their shows filling up night after night leaving their mark on the unsigned scene in South Wales.

Their polished sound derives from a mixture of gritty mainstream rock with a modern Celtic tinge from Irish singer Clare and the band in tow.

They are an excellent covers band playing all the hits from the 60's right through to the noughties!

Testimonials

"I booked 'The Aces' for my wedding last year and we had such a fun night with them. Our first dance song was sung beautifully and the rest of the music that followed was just amazing. A real mix of songs, old and new, and they appealed to everyone there - from the kids to the Grandparents. I really enjoyed getting up with my bridesmaids to sing a song with them! They arrived on time and didn't cause us any hassle, just got on and did the job exceptionally well and made our evening really special. Thanks guys!”
