Retro/Vintage flair meets 21st-century EDM beats. A dazzling fusion of Electro Swing, retro pop, and even a little Steampunk swagger.  Valerie Giglio is a vocalist, songwriter, and producer redefining EDM with her signature Electro Swing style. From her start as a lead singer with classic rock and dance bands, and later as a vocalist with Boston jazz legend Al Vega and his trio, Valerie has shaped her style into a unique blend of the old and new, with releases ranging from jazz standards, to Electro Swing and cinematic Steampunk - showcasing her ability to evolve as an artist. 

After a life-altering stroke in 2014 left her without a singing voice, paralyzed and in a wheelchair, Valerie made an awe-inspiring comeback—not only rebuilding her voice and attending Berklee College of Music just two years later, but becoming an electronic music producer and entering the Electro Swing genre.  She’s earned accolades including radio airplay on WGBH Boston, a Hollywood Independent Music Award nomination for Best Dance Song, a Global Music Award and was a semi-finalist in the USA Songwriting Awards.  Her original cinematic steampunk single "The Illusionist," co-written with Italian vibraphonist Samuel Cerra, was remixed and landed on Berlin’s Electro Swing Thing label.

She has performed from Boston to LA and Europe, is a voting member of The Recording Academy (Grammys®) and ASCAP. Her stroke survivor journey has been featured in national media. and she is a graduate of Salem State University and New England School of Law.  

Valerie is more than a performer—she’s a force. A survivor. A sound shaper. And a time-traveling artist blending past and future with every beat.
