Sheila Jordan Birthday Celebration
Dizzy's Club102 Columbus Circle, New York 10107
At Dizzy’s Club, the Sheila Jordan Birthday Celebration brings fellow artists together for a birthday tribute to the singer. The bill does not name the participating performers or specify an ensemble, so the night is presented as a collective salute rather than a set by a listed band. It is an evening built around Jordan’s musical legacy, with artists honoring her contributions to bebop and scat singing.
The listing calls Sheila Jordan legendary and credits her with groundbreaking contributions to bebop and scat singing, as well as lasting influence on vocal jazz. No individual tribute performers are announced, and the supplied material offers no biographical detail about her hometown, collaborators, recordings, or career milestones. What it does establish is the focus of the celebration: Jordan’s place in vocal jazz, and the continuing regard expressed by fellow artists who will gather to salute her on this birthday bill 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.

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.
