Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live in New York

Experience Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live on July 7th

Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks will perform at Birdland Marina in New York City on July 7, 2026. The ensemble specializes in American popular music from the 1920s through the 1940s, often categorized as hot jazz, early swing, and pre-rock ‘n’ roll. Their performances frequently feature arrangements based on original orchestrations from the period, utilizing a diverse instrumentation including strings, reeds, brass, and rhythm sections. Giordano himself is a renowned vibraphonist, arranger, and historian of this musical era.

Birdland Marina is a relatively recent addition to New York City’s jazz venue landscape. Opened in 2023, it represents an expansion of the historic Birdland Jazz Club, established in 1949. While the original Birdland was located in Manhattan and became legendary for hosting jazz icons like Charlie Parker and Miles Davis before closing in 1965, the current iteration aims to carry on that legacy. Birdland Marina offers a waterfront setting with both indoor and outdoor performance spaces designed to accommodate a variety of musical acts while maintaining an intimate club atmosphere reminiscent of its predecessor.
