   About Vince Giordano & the Nighthawks
In 30 years as a bandleader, Vince Giordano has become the authority on recreating the sounds of 1920s and '30s jazz and popular music. "I just love the energy of the early jazz," says Giordano. "I wanted to recapture some of that." Early appearances with Leon Redbone and on Prairie Home Companion and lending his talents to Francis Ford Coppola’s film The Cotton Club, led to working with Dick Hyman's Orchestra in half a dozen Woody Allen soundtracks then as a bass player in Sean Penn’s band in Woody’s Sweet and Lowdown. He and band were featured in Gus Van Sant’s film Finding Forrester, in Martin Scorsese’s The Aviator, Robert DeNiro’s film, The Good Shepherd and most recently in Sam Mendes’ upcoming film: Revolutionary Road. Also a big-band historian and collector, Giordano has more than 30,000 scores in his collection. Vince Giordano and the Nighthawks are renowned on the New York scene for their commitment to preserving and authentically presenting 1920s jazz and popular music.

Hey Vince-
Remember me?
I heard your band mentioned on WBGO... made me think of you and your aluminum bass and antique microphones.
Hope all is well.

If there ever was a case for reincarnation Vince is it. For years I listened to acoustic jazz recordings on my Victrola always hoping to hear someone do it live. That's when I walked into the Red Blazer Two and was completely overwhemed by the sound. Here it was....Here's how it was to be living in the twenties! Let there be no doubt that the band is a national treasure.

Howdy! I just thought how much I missed hearing your music in person, and all of the sudden your recording of "You're the Top" came on. So, in that spirit, I'm dropping on by to say exactly that to you and the fellows. You all are the absolute best!!!
