ABOUT VANESSA RACI

Inspired by the golden age of jazz vocalists and supper club-era sophistication, New York-based jazz and blues chanteuse Vanessa Raci captivates audiences with her “truly remarkable voice and style” (Mike Bennett, WHUD Radio). A versatile and engaging entertainer, her performances range from intimate vocal-piano sets to swinging with a full jazz band. Whether interpreting a classic standard or a contemporary power ballad, “She’s a sensual stylist who pours herself into the song” (Bruce Apar, North County News). Vanessa is quickly making her mark, having appeared in New York City and area venues including the Metropolitan Room, Rye Playland’s main stage, and the legendary Birdland, and backed by some of the area’s top jazz musicians. She has held standing engagements at 230 Fifth in Manhattan, The Astor Room in Astoria, The Winery at St. George in Mohegan Lake, Vintage in White Plains, Division Street Grill in Peekskill, Club Car in Mamaroneck, and Don Coqui in New Rochelle. She also enjoys giving back by lending her voice at benefits for organizations including the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Ronald McDonald House, and the American Cancer Society.
