Photo Coverage: Terese Genecco Plays IRIDIUM with Klea Blackhurst
By: Stephen Sorokoff Jan. 26, 2011
It was the last Tuesday of the month and once again Terese charged out with her Little Big Band and Broadway was swinging. "It Had Better Be Tonight" really took on a special meaning as her opening song, it was the mantra for the band to take off in the tradition of the Johnny Carson Tonight Show Orchestra. Add Klea Blackhurst as her guest and the mix became an intoxicating evening, taking the audience back to the days of the Rat Packs swinging Las Vegas shows.
Klea who will be starting her appearances on the Onion News Network TV show this Friday gave a preview of the character she will be playing, and everyone in the packed room seemed to be texting a reminder to tune in. BTW it's Friday at 10 pm Time Warner 81, or as Klea said "Please don't watch in Hi Def on channel 781." However Genecco again gave a Hi Definition reminder of what swing is and why this is the Iridium's "Longest Running Show on Broadway."An extra added attraction was the appearance of Dean Martin (in the personage of Scott Barbarino) with the Iridiums version on the Copa Girls singing "Memories Are Made Of This."
