FEINSTEIN'S AT LOEWS REGENCY continues its Winter 2012 season with the return of three-time MAC Award nominee Jenna Esposito in "Italian Undercover!" In this one-night only appearance, Jenna revisits the music of some of the most popular and influential Italian-American pop singers of the 20th century, each of whom changed their names and performed "undercover".

Does the name Francesco Paulo LoVecchio mean anything to you? How about Lugee Alfredo Giovanni Sacco?? No?! Okay, one more try – surely you have heard of Concetta Franconero?! Need some help? Perhaps you would recognize them by their "undercover aliases" – Frankie Laine, Lou christie and Connie Francis?! Here's the scoop: Sure, most people are aware that Dean Martin, Tony Bennett and yes, Connie Francis are Italian. And most people are also aware that their given names have been changed considerably. But not everyone knows that the same can be said for countless others including Frankie Laine, Lou christie, Bobby Rydell, Steven Tyler and more...until now!! In"Italian Undercover," Jenna celebrates the music of this group of singers, who, collectively, had a tremendous influence on the history of pop and rock music.

This program is inspired by Mark Rotella's book Amore – The Story of Italian American Song; Rotella himself will be on hand to introduce the show. The performance features Jenna's five-piece band: musical directorFortune Esposito on guitar, David Crone on piano, Rob Broelmann on bass, Scott Morehouse on drums, Brian Broelmann on tenor sax, accordion, and mandolin, andKelly Esposito-Broelmann and Rob Langeder on backup vocals.
