Terese Genecco has been appearing every month in Broadway’s longest running nightclub act at the world-renowned jazz venue, The Iridium with her 8-piece Little Big Band. She has been hailed as “the love-child of Dean Martin & Judy Garland” by The San Francisco Examiner, “A One-Woman Rat Pack!” by Cabaret Scenes Magazine and as a Critic’s Pick and Top Ten favorite of Time Out New York magazine since first appearing in Jazz at The Lincoln Center in 2005.

First known for her multi-award winning jazz/musical creation, Drunk With Love:A Tribute To Frances Faye. Genecco has also headlined from coast to coast with engagements at The Rrazz Room, The Great American Music Hall, Yoshi’s Jazz Club, The Herbst Theater, The Post Street Theater, San Francisco Pride Main Stage and the Fillmore Jazz Festival, opening for Grammy Winner Steve Tyrell at the Bergen Performing Arts Center in New Jersey, and as a headliner at The Peppermill Hotel & Casino in Reno. She has recently returned from a tour in Australia and New Zealand in honor of the 95th birthday of legendary composer/ arranger/conductor Russell Garcia.

Genecco is a 2009 MAC Award Winner for Outstanding Female Vocalist, a 2009 Out Music Award Winner for Outstanding Comedy/Cabaret Song; a 2008 MAC Award Winner for Outstanding Recording, and a 2007 Back Stage Bistro Award Winner for Outstanding Tribute Show.
