Experience the ambience of a landmark jazz club when drummer Tommy Igoe and his orchestra recreate the excitement of an evening at New York City’s Birdland. A dynamic ensemble, The Birdland Big Band surpasses the traditional and sets the standard for a twenty-first-century jazz orchestra. Igoe and company infuse American jazz with a fresh perspective by exploring music from across the planet. “There isn’t another band like this anywhere. … a music experience you simply must witness,” writes a Time Out New York critic. “Tommy Igoe’s drumming defies the laws of physics,” observes a writer for the International Jazz Herald. Discover why the band, which performs on Fridays at Birdland, has become one of the Big Apple’s most popular weekly musical attractions.
