Rick Bryant and the Jive Bombers is an eleven piece band led by Rick Bryant that performed 60s and later styles of rhythm and blues music in New Zealand. Although it started as a covers band in 1983, it gradually transformed through several line up changes, with a repertoire of Rick Bryant compositions resulting in a CD release of songs by Rick Bryant in 2004 "Time" - the title track with image compilation by Radio Active New Zealand.

In 2007 - 2008 this band performed shows at The London Bar in Central Auckland.

Rick Bryant, has a three-decade music history in bands including Rick Bryant and the Jive Bombers, The Jubilation Gospel Choir, Blerta, the Windy City Strugglers and the Black Soap Boys..

A drawing of Bryant was the cover of "cult classic" rock history Stranded in Paradise by John Dix (1988).
