Bona Fide
Jamiroquai (Mostly funk, but you can hear jazz influences in a lot of songs)
 
That's all I have, but I got just into this stuff recently too. I'll be watching this thread for sure. I've found these Wikipedia articles to be very helpful when looking for new music: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_jazz
 
Scroll down and there's a nice list of artists.

Legendary Bassist  MARCUS MILLER !!!!  for sure...
 
"Live - A Night in Monte Carlo"
 
"Renaissance"

Got that slight acid jazz vibe on it. Acid jazz being a bit more upbeat usually than that. 
 
Older Jamiroquai stuff like:
 
Talullah - Jamiroquai
 
 

 
Groove Theory - Ride
 

 
D'influence - hypnotize
