TODAY: Pink Martini at Straz in Tampa


Pink Martini, playing today at the Straz Center in Tampa, takes audiences back in time and around the globe with a fresh, fun, one-world spirit.

The group's 12 musicians sing in about twice as many languages; mixing originals by leaders Thomas Lauderdale (piano) and China Forbes (lead vocals) — pictured — with obscure covers such as "Amado Mio" from the classic 1946 film noir "Gilda" starring Rita Hayworth.

Forbes wrote and sings the great ditty "Hey, Eugene!"

It's about a boy who didn't call.

 Enjoy.
