Early Jazz
Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks

“An erupting wellspring of euphoria: that would describe the vintage swing emanating from Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks…”

–The New York Times by Stephen Holden

Most recently, Vince Giordano & the Nighthawks won a GRAMMY: Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media for their work on BOARDWALK EMPIRE Volume 1 – Music from the HBO Original Series CD. Vince and the band are heard and seen on Boardwalk Empire as well as USA Network series Royal Pains.

Jonathan Batiste and his New Orleans Stay Human Band

New Orleans pianist Jonathan Batiste is an iconic artist, unique in this generation. With his voice on piano and dapper sense of style, he has ignited the NYC music scene. The Stay Human Band, a modern jazz ensemble noted for their world-class music, high energy and uplifting spirit.

Ms. Vinnie Knight

Ms. Vinnie Knight was born in Harlem, New York, and at an early age, she sang in church choirs.   Her smooth, velvety, mysteriously angelic voice has the sophistication of the great Sarah Vaughan, the earthiness of Pearl Bailey, and the seductiveness of Billie Holiday.
