Jazz Loft @ Stony Brook- From Birdland to Broadway

The Jazz Loft @ Southampton Concert Series returns to the Avram Theater at Stony Brook Southampton for an unforgettable season! From Birdland to Broadway brings the excitement, swing, and star power of New York City’s legendary jazz scene to Southampton. Guitarist Frank Vignola leads his celebrated Birdland Quartet, featuring guitarist Vinny Raniolo and bassist Gary Mazzaroppi, alongside some of the city’s top jazz musicians.

Every Wednesday night, Vignola and his quartet light up the stage at the iconic Birdland Jazz Club, often joined by special guests from the upper ranks of the jazz world. That same energy, spontaneity, and musical brilliance comes to the Avram Theater in a concert that moves effortlessly between straight ahead jazz, beloved standards, and Broadway inspired favorites.

With dazzling virtuosity, infectious rhythm, and a sense of fun that’s impossible to miss, the band swings, romps, and reimagines the Great American Songbook, transporting audiences from Birdland, to Broadway, and straight into the heart of live jazz.
