SAN FRANCISCO (Top40 Charts / RBP Concerts) Rick Bartalini Presents announced that Pink Martini will perform three Bay Area concerts this fall. The concerts are scheduled for November 17 at the Marin Center in San Rafael, November 19 at Grace Pavilion at Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa and November 20 at the Paramount Theatre in Oakland. Tickets are on-sale now at www.RBPconcerts.com.
Pink Martini has cultivated a diverse and transcontinental following. The 12-piece ensemble's music is cosmopolitan, contagious and often difficult to categorize: the group suggests its style lies somewhere between 1930s Cuban dance orchestra, a classical chamber music ensemble, a Brazilian marching street band and Japanese film noir. Founding member and bandleader Thomas Lauderdale considers Pink Martini "musical archaeologists bringing melodies and rhythms from different parts of the world to create something that is modern." He says that the multitalented and multilingual band offers "an urban musical travelogue ... demonstrating that Americans are indeed serious about engaging in a dialogue with the rest of the world."
In the absence of the band's regular singer China Forbes, who is currently recovering from throat surgery, Pink Martini and band leader/pianist Thomas Lauderdale will feature world renowned guest singer Storm Large. "With the sexiness of a lounge singer and the pipes of someone who wouldn't be out of place at the Met, Large is the perfect leader-cum-pinup girl for Pink Martini." -Cape Cod Times.
Tickets for all three Pink Martini concerts can be purchased at www.RBPconcerts.com. Ticket prices vary depending on the city and venue. Ticket prices range from $25.50 to $85.50. Visit Pink Martini on-line at www.PinkMartini.com
