Nu Jazz, 2026.
CD+DVD kiadvány!
The Nighthawks’ music combines elements of jazz, dancefloor, and chill-out, spiced with a dash of progressive rock. The band is known for its cool grooves and atmospheric arrangements. The band takes its name from the painting of the same name by American painter Edward Hopper, who is considered the most famous representative of American Realism.
The painting is regarded as the epitome of urban loneliness and emotional alienation. This is exactly what the Nighthawks’ music conveys when the band members give voice to their own stories from the big city: harmonious, sometimes wistful, laid-back, jazzy, and above all, always stylish. You can experience this for yourself at their concert during the Leverkusen Jazz Days on November 12, 2023.
The Nighthawks’ concert is a special moment—one that, for this band, is anything but an exception.
We watch and listen as the five musicians-trumpeter Rainer Winterschladen, bassist Dal Martino, guitarist Jörg Lenhardt, keyboardist Jürgen Dahmen, and drummer Thomas Alkier-play, and every note springs from their very own intentions and life stories. And yet they allow us to let go, to immerse ourselves, and-in the special magic of the moment-to forget who is even playing.
