Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live in New York

Experience Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live on July 21st

Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks will be performing at Birdland Marina in New York City on July 21, 2026. The ensemble specializes in meticulously recreating the sounds of American popular music from the 1920s through the 1940s, often described as hot jazz, early swing, and pre-rock ‘n’ roll. Their repertoire draws heavily from film scores, Broadway productions, and recordings of iconic artists like Duke Ellington, Fletcher Henderson, and Paul Whiteman. Giordano is a renowned multi-instrumentalist proficient in a wide range of vintage instruments including trombone, tuba, and various novelty horns.

Birdland Marina operates as an extension of the legendary Birdland Jazz Club, historically located in Manhattan. While the original Birdland closed in 1965, it became synonymous with jazz music’s golden age, hosting performances by Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane. Birdland Marina, established more recently, aims to carry on that legacy by providing a waterfront venue for live music performances. It's situated along the East River offering an outdoor setting for concerts and events.
