I will be coming to nyc on feb 15 to 22nd. Is there any good jazz and or shows by performers ?
Hi Michael! Great question. Check the schedules for Smalls, Jazz Gallery, Village Vanguard, Smoke, Red Rooster, Blue Smoke, Mintons, Birdland, or look at the venues they are using for Winter Jazzfest in January. This is also exactly what we do in our vacation itinerary planning! We actually have this as an example of what is custom, “I’m really into jazz music and am coming to NYC from August 16-21st. What shows are playing at the best clubs during that time?”
