Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live in New York

Experience Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live on July 27th

Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks will perform at Birdland Marina in New York City on July 27, 2026. The ensemble specializes in the recreation of American popular music from the 1920s through the 1940s, often categorized as hot jazz, early swing, and pre-rock ‘n’ roll dance music. Their performances feature arrangements based on original orchestrations and sheet music from the period, aiming for historical authenticity in sound and style. The group is known for its work accompanying contemporary artists seeking a vintage sound and for its contributions to film soundtracks requiring period-accurate music. Vince Giordano himself is a highly respected multi-instrumentalist and historian of American music.

Birdland Marina is a relatively new venue established as an extension of the legendary Birdland Jazz Club in Manhattan. Opened in 2023, it is located on a floating barge docked at West 44th Street Pier 84 along the Hudson River. The space was designed to offer an outdoor performance setting with views of the city skyline, while maintaining a connection to Birdland’s long history as a prominent jazz institution.
