Gigi is a Toronto Vocalist and also a mover behind the stage curtains.
Genevieve (Gigi) Marentette is a singer with wide repertoire, but sticking mostly closer to jazz. She had a long career in Asia and Europe, but came back to Toronto to establish herself at home. She has a killer voice, looks and fashion is her domain. Gigi is one of the founders of Kensington Jazz Festival (Since 2016) and can be found doing million things preparing the festival and even more, when the festival is happening. I saw her this month at great event at Old Mill Inn, where she prepared a special program of song of one of her mentors Don Francks. On the photo she is the one with black & red dress, Dione Taylor (with the hat) joined her from the audience on improptu duet.
Surprisingly, I seen her at Jazz Festival in Cuba in January, where she was featured performer (and only Canadian) in Bobby Carcasses showcase of his best fifty, or there about, musical friends. She is a true performer, not famous yet, but well known in Toronto musical community.
