Herlin Riley and Friends
Dizzy's Club102 Columbus Circle, New York 10107
Herlin Riley and Friends is billed for this Dizzy’s Club date in Manhattan. The billed format is Riley with friends, rather than a named fixed lineup: no individual performers are listed in the available event details. No record release, guest feature, tribute, residency, late set, or other program theme is specified. The performance takes place at Dizzy’s Club, Jazz at Lincoln Center’s roughly 140-seat listening room, where the club generally presents two sets in an evening and offers views across Central Park and the Manhattan skyline.
The available material identifies the act only as Herlin Riley and Friends. It provides no biographical background for Riley, no hometown or career history, no named collaborators, and no account of recordings, notable engagements, or critical response. It also does not identify the friends joining him for this performance, so there is no basis here to describe the group’s personnel or repertoire. What is clear is the billing itself: this is a Herlin Riley-led night, presented under an open-ended friends format at Dizzy’s Club.
Dizzy's Club offers a refined jazz experience with a seating capacity of about 140, where guests enjoy live performances from world-class musicians in a room that frames sweeping views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline. The venue features a full bar and a seasonal menu with sophisticated soul food, enhancing the evening beyond just the music. Shows are ticketed and typically run two sets per night, with late-night sessions available without reservation. The seating is generally first-come, first-served, encouraging early arrival for the best vantage points. The club’s location within Jazz at Lincoln Center places it in a lively cultural hub, making it ideal for a night that blends attentive listening with the pleasure of fine dining and cityscape views.
