Maggi Albisani

The sultry Italian singer from the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn woos audience and belts out songs made popular by Connie Francis, Barbra Streisand, Sarah Vaughan and many others. Maggi Albisani does standards, pop, rock and jazz. Watching her perform, one can appreciate Albisani’s need to be flexible. She schmoozes with her audience, flirts with the men — all in great fun. Perhaps Maggi’s finest performances are her renditions of songs by which she shares many qualities and has the likeness and beauty of Connie Francis, the world renowned Italian-American singer.

Maggi’s first ambition was to act. “My singing career started late,” she said. “My background was theater.” Eventually she began singing in clubs. “I liked the spontaneity. It is not as rigid as theater,” she said. Maggi’s theater experience includes Anything Goes, The Maids, Long Day Journey Into Night, and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolf. She performs at many Las Vegas locations (listed below) including Cuban Bombshells (Decastro Sisters) and The Kenny Kerr Show. Plus television experience for the PBS special, “Down Memory Lane.”

Maggi was featured as Artist of the Month in February 2007 by La Voce, The Voice of Las Vegas’ Italian-American Community (http://www.lasvegaslavoce.com).


Albisani has made two CDs — “Just in Time” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.”
