Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live in New York

Experience Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks live on August 18th

Vince Giordano & The Nighthawks will perform at Birdland Marina in New York on August 18, 2026. The ensemble specializes in meticulously recreating the sounds of American popular music from the 1920s through the 1940s, often categorized as hot jazz, early swing, and pre-rock ‘n’ roll. Their repertoire draws heavily from film scores, Broadway productions, and recordings of prominent bandleaders like Duke Ellington, Paul Whiteman, and George Gershwin. Giordano himself is a highly respected multi-instrumentalist proficient in a wide range of vintage instruments including trombone, tuba, and string bass.

Birdland Marina is a relatively recent addition to the New York City jazz scene, opening in 2022 as an extension of the historic Birdland Jazz Club located in Manhattan. Situated on Pier 84 in the Hudson River Park, it offers an open-air venue designed to provide a relaxed atmosphere for live music performances. Unlike its indoor counterpart known for its intimate club setting, Birdland Marina provides waterfront views and a larger capacity for audiences.
