1. … Read Full Bio ↴There are at least other six different artists called The Aces.
1. The Aces are an all-girl band originating from Provo, Utah. The band formed over a decade ago when sisters Cristal Ramirez (vocals, guitar) and Alisa Ramirez (drums) recruited their childhood best friends McKenna Petty (bass) and Katie Henderson (guitar, backup vocals). They began performing as The Blue Aces at various local venues. Being from a conservative hometown allowed them to play at most venues in their town as alcohol was prohibited in these venues. They wrote many original songs attempting to follow other alternative rock bands but ultimately they were able to find their own alternative pop sound. They shortened their name to The Aces and independently released their first hit single "Stuck" in May of 2016. The band signed with Red Bull Records at the end of that year. In mid 2017 they released their first EP "I Don't Like Being Honest". Their debut full length album, "When My Heart Felt Volcanic", was released on April 6th, 2018 through Red Bull Records. Their second full length album "Under My Influence" was originally supposed to be released on June 12th, 2020. However, on June 7, the band announced that the album would be delayed in response to the George Floyd protests. The band eventually released the album on July 17, 2020.
2. The Aces was one of the earliest and most influential of the electric Chicago blues band in the 1950s. Led by guitarist brothers Louis Myers and Dave Myers, natives of Byhalia, Mississippi, the brothers originally performed under the name "the Little Boys"; with the subsequent addition of harpist Junior Wells, they rechristened themselves the Three Deuces, followed by the Three Aces. The 1950 enlistment of drummer Fred Below prompted another name change, this time to the Four Aces; finally, to simplify matters once and for all, the group performed as just The Aces. Influenced in large part by jazz, they developed an urbane, sophisticated style well ahead of its time; in particular, Below's refined rhythms led to the rise of the blues shuffle beat, and helped launch the drums to a new prominence within the blues band.
In 1952, Wells quit to join the Muddy Waters band, filling the vacancy created by the recent departure of harpist Little Walter; ironically, Walter himself quickly signed the remaining Aces as his new backing unit, renaming the trio first as Little Walter and the Nightcats and then the Jukes to capitalize on his current hit single "Juke". A series of seminal recordings followed -- "Mean Old World", "Sad Hours", "Off the Wall", and "Tell Me Mama" among them -- before Louis' 1954 exit resulted in the Jukes' gradual dissolution as Little Walter's band, but freeing up the members to reform as a backing band for other Chicago blues artists such as Otis Rush and others.
In the late 1950s Dave Myers switched from guitar to the electric bass, becoming one of the first Chicago bluesmen to adopt this relatively new instrument, and helping to popularize it in Chicago blues. During the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s the original Aces reunited on numerous occasions for recordings, tours, and festival gigs.
3. London based Mod group. Recorded - One way street, single.
Charlie Casey (Bass) Steve Tannett (Guitar) Noel Martin (Drums).
After "Menace" split up at the end of 1978, the last remaining members start "The Aces". The title track is a brilliant song. They also had recorded another single as "Vermillion & The Aces" with an american girl on
4. The band comprise the imposing figure of Sky O’Banion on lead vocals and harmonica, Derek Irving (lead guitar and sitar) and Mike Gutsch (drums), with the rhythm guitar work shared on the ten tracks between Bob Welsh and Chris Anderson – together they create an intense wall of sound that grabs you from the start and doesn’t let go!
Inspired by lo fi blues music, The Aces create a sound all their own using two guitars, harp/vocals and drums. Fronted by vocalist and harmonica player Sky O'Banion and guitarist Derek Irving, The Aces push the limits of their own musical creativity. Wailing harmonica, distorted vocals, hypnotic guitar lines, pounding rhythms and stream of consciousness lyrics take you on a musical journey where the sound will charge you.
It’s probably the rawest, most energetic blues since the late, great Lester Butler and his band, The Red Devils, burst out of LA in the early 1990s’ – The Aces work on some of the same templates – blasting harmonica, down home guitar and the same driving rhythms, but with The Aces powered by low-tuned second guitar as opposed to a conventional bass player.
5. A Reggae Band which were the best known for their work for reggae legend Desmond Dekker, but released recordings by themselves.
6. The Aces may also refer to a group from Burma.

The Aces Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The words, the words don't resonate
Seasons, they always seem to stay the same
I'm holding on to things we said we would change
I'm stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
It cuts, babe, 'cause we're just taking it slow
Stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
You move, and I don't really know what to say
Too soon, am I supposed to feel this way?
Reach out but I don't wanna get in your way
Too little, too late, I know that's what you're gonna say
I'm stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
It cuts, babe, 'cause we're just taking it slow
It's overdue, make your move
Stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
I see it in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
We ain't satisfied
Waste away our lives, our lives, our lives
We ain't satisfied
We talk, talk 'til blue in the face
Holding on to the things we said we would change
You know I'm stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
(You know I'm stuck here)
It cuts, babe, 'cause we're just taking it slow
(Taking it slow)
I see it in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
We ain't satisfied
Stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
The Aces's song Stuck talks about being stuck in a stagnant relationship where the couple keep talking about their problems and flaws but can't seem to move on or change. The lyrics suggest they are not satisfied with the current state of their relationship and want to make some changes, yet they can't seem to find the right words or actions to make it happen. There seems to be an uncomfortable tension between them as they are both aware of the problems but can't seem to make any progress.
The opening line "We talk, talk 'til we're blue in the face, The words, the words don't resonate" suggests that they've been discussing their issues for a while but it's not making any difference. They're stuck in a loop where they talk about their issues but the words don't seem to resonate with them. The next two lines "Seasons, they always seem to stay the same, I'm holding on to things we said we would change" suggests that time passes, but nothing changes in their relationship. The singer holds on to what they said they would fix, but they don't see any improvement.
The chorus "I'm stuck, babe, Stuck with nowhere to go" repeats twice, emphasizing the idea that they're stuck and can't seem to move on. The line "It cuts, babe, 'cause we're just taking it slow" suggests that their slow progression in their relationship is hurting them. The second verse talks about the uneasiness and confusion that both of them feel. They don't know what to say or do, and it seems like it's too early or too late for something. The repetition of "I see it in your eyes" highlights their unspoken feelings and dissatisfaction with the relationship.

We talk, talk 'til we're blue in the face
We communicate continuously until we get exhausted
The words, the words don't resonate
What we say does not have any effect
Seasons, they always seem to stay the same
Time passes but things stay the same
I'm holding on to things we said we would change
I have expectations for things to be different, as we discussed previously
I'm stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go

Stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
I am feeling trapped because nothing is happening, and it hurts because progress is slow. It's high time you should make a move, as I am stuck here with no direction
You move, and I don't really know what to say
Your actions confuse me, and I don't know what to do
Too soon, am I supposed to feel this way?
I'm not sure if it's too early for me to feel this trapped
Reach out but I don't wanna get in your way
I want to communicate, but I don't want to be intrusive
Too little, too late, I know that's what you're gonna say
I know that you'll dismiss my complaints as insignificant, but it's already too late to change my views
I see it in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
We ain't satisfied
Waste away our lives, our lives, our lives
We ain't satisfied
I can tell from your eyes that we both feel unfulfilled, and we are both wasting our lives
You know I'm stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
(You know I'm stuck here)
It cuts, babe, 'cause we're just taking it slow
(Taking it slow)
You're aware that I feel trapped, and we're only making slow progress, which hurts me
I see it in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
We ain't satisfied
Stuck, babe
Stuck with nowhere to go
I see our dissatisfaction reflected in your eyes, and I feel trapped with no direction

@MrHeathpacoffice
There are a lot of girl groups. You just have to go out and find them. (Especially in the indie alternative genre)
@smolbeanaidil2689
Amethyst Hope Haim ???
@joshriver75
Amethyst Hope I don't think it's fair enough to classify this music with "boy(girl) band. For this most part the unappealing part of "boy-band" music is that the band members are about as far removed from any artistic contributions as one could get. This just happens to be a band with all female members.
@tootisbabootis
An all girl band??? Sounds like my kind of thing!!!! Go girls!
@zariaa6260
Alysa Crist Check out HAIM. They are great.
@rsuresh123
Been listening for 6 years, still haven't come across any recent bands with this sound. ❤
@spaceycandyasmr99
I think HAIM sounds similar
