An eclectic international cocktail of jazz, swing, world
music, cabaret, chanson, and more, Pink Martini and vocalist China Forbes bring
their genre-defying sound back to Stern Grove Festival. Opening the show is
local ensemble Barrio Manouche with a swinging blend of global influences.
Founded in Portland, OR in 1994, Pink Martini has amassed
legions of fans with a genre-hopping and globe-trotting big band sound. Under
the leadership of founder Thomas Lauderdale, Pink Martini features a dozen
musicians and performs its multilingual repertoire in over 25 languages on
concert stages and with symphony orchestras throughout the world.
Barrio Manouche is an acoustic San Francisco-based international
septet with influences ranging from the swing of Louis Armstrong to the hot
jazz of Django Reinhardt, to flamenco, gypsy soul, and avant-garde jazz.
