In 2009, Genaro supported the UK number one charting pop singer David Essex on a UK tour[4] and in 2012 he joined fellow Bournemouth musician and Voice contestant Ant Henson[5] as vocalist and guitarist of the psychedelic post-rock band, Ever The Animal.[6]
In June 2016, he supported Luke Concannon at one of his house concert Uk tour dates. He performed a rendition of his own song, "When the Last Bird Flies".
Genaro's song "Down Under" is known as one of the most harmonic acts but, he is not acoustic because he has other instruments in his songs.
In 2015 Genaro backed a track called "Burn the Fire" by local artists Simon Harder and Matt Black (Piano Man) with his Harmonica and Guitar by Chris Payne later released by Hangover Hill Recording Studio.
Genaro is known for his prolific work in developing younger artists and supporting musicians in their ambitions.
