Dizzy's events are held in the "event room" of the San Diego Wine & Culinary Center, located on the ground floor of the Harbor Club Towers @ 2nd Ave & J Street/3rd Avenue & K Street. Its entrance is actually on the back side of the buildings - on the Martin Luther King Jr. Promenade - facing the Convention Center.
Same focus on the music & vibe you know & love, just a little more pleasantly upscale
This dizzy's web calendar is always up-to-the-minute correct

Fri Mar 26: Atmospheric & mesmeric, "throat singing" is almost too difficult to describe in words. It must be heard to be believed - the music, produced by resonating low sounds in the throat, creates a middle note & a haunting, flute-like harmonic - 3 vocal notes at once! Chirgilchin is a group of master throat singers from Tuva, a small Russian province north of Western Mongolia. Singing the ancient folk songs in the Tuvan language, the group also plays hand made instruments.
