Get your tickets to see Stanley Plays Jimi in Portsmouth, NH. Happening on Saturday, February 7, 2026 at Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club. Doors open at 7:30 PM.

World-renowned guitarist Stanley Jordan brings his long-running tribute Stanley Plays Jimi to the stage–a deeply personal and imaginative homage to Jimi Hendrix. Rather than imitate, Stanley re-imagines Hendrix’s music, channeling his spirit while exploring how Jimi’s sound might have evolved today. “This is my fantasy Hendrix concert if Jimi were still alive,” Stanley says. A four-time Grammy nominee with a signature two-hand tapping technique, Stanley first connected with Hendrix as a child, making this project both a musical and emotional full circle. Though widely celebrated for his groundbreaking jazz career–including his landmark album Magic Touch, which spent 51 weeks at #1 on Billboard’s jazz chart–Stanley has always kept one foot in rock and blues. With Stanley Plays Jimi, he blends Hendrix’s explosive energy with his own exploratory style, honoring the legend while expanding the vocabulary he left behind.
