Pink Martini

Pink Martini, the American band formed in Portland in 1994, perform at Liverpool Philharmonic Hall. The group blends classical music, jazz and Latin American music.

Pink Martini was formed in 1994 in Portland, Oregon, and combines classical music, jazz and Latin American music in its repertoire. The band signed to Audiogram and released its first album, Sympathique, in 1997, a record that set out the eclectic mix of styles that has defined the group since.

The band's sound draws on a broad range of traditions, moving between European classical forms, jazz idioms and songs in several languages, which gives its concerts a varied programme. The stage is shared by a band of several musicians and vocalists, and the group's repertoire spans its own material as well as older songs reworked in its distinctive style.

Liverpool Philharmonic Hall hosts concerts and shows in Liverpool, and this evening places the band in one of the city's principal concert venues. The night suits listeners who follow classical crossover and jazz-influenced music and who want to hear an ensemble with a distinct identity.
