The Selena Experience

Tribute to Selena

New profilePublished Apr 17, 2023
Manhattan, NY
80's90's

As a young Colombian/American girl, Genessa’s musical influences varied from Gwen Stefani to Mariah Carey. It wasn’t until the discovery of Selena Quintanilla did Genessa finally see a bit of herself looking back through the television screen. Her admiration and love of Selena began in the early 90’s and only grew stronger once the Latina Icon was murdered. Selena’s style, stage presence and music then became a religion for young Genessa. The foundation was laid and as the years went by, she built upon her musical style. Genessa has toured the nation as a member of an all-girl pop group named 3rd Faze, she has appeared on American Idol, It's Showtime at the Apollo, fronted many popular New York cover bands, and is featured as background vocalist for UK pop artist, Cheryl Cole's album, "3 Words."

What does a band in Manhattan typically cost?
Budgets vary by act profile, production scale, and venue tier in the Manhattan market. Strong regional cover bands start in the low four figures for short corporate sets; headliner-quality tributes scale up from there. Send the date, the venue, and a target budget and we will come back with two or three Manhattan-area acts that fit.

Will the act travel within New York?
Most bands serving Manhattan cover the immediate metro in a day-of drive. Cross-state runs inside New York may carry a travel fee; we line-item it on the quote so there are no surprises in the contract.
What's included in the booking?
Standard bookings include the performance, sound and lights appropriate to the venue, costumes / staging for tribute acts, a clean advance packet, an insurance certificate naming your venue, and a single day-of contact.
