Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks, an 11-piece orchestra, has become one of New York’s most sought-after jazz bands. Led by Giordano on aluminum bass, tuba, and bass saxophone, the Nighthawks masterfully recreate both the ample sound and good-time ambiance of a red-hot, swing-era band. Their rousing, buoyant, eminently danceable music has been featured in the Academy Award–winning film The Aviator, as well as at black-tie galas at the Waldorf Astoria, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and New York City Ballet and gigs at the Rainbow Room, Times Square Grill, Carlyle Hotel, and Copacabana.
