Pink Martini

Pink Martini, an American ensemble at the crossroads of bolero, swing and French chanson, returns with its blend of Latin sounds and reworked standards. Led on stage by vocalist Storm Large, the group alternates between French, Spanish, Portuguese and English, supported by an orchestra in which piano, brass, strings and percussion build a highly cinematic palette. Thirty years of career under their belt, an identity shaped by carefully crafted originals and covers, echoes of music-hall and retro nods that never feel weighed down by nostalgia. One thinks of "Sympathique (Je ne veux pas travailler)", soft bossa tunes and those polyglot ballads that helped define their signature sound.

On 24 October 2026 at the Casino Barrière Toulouse in Toulouse, Pink Martini will present a repertoire spanning their different periods, between the band’s classics and fresh reinterpretations of older songs. Storm Large’s voice sets the tone, balancing power and precision, while the ensemble unfolds arrangements that let melody and groove breathe. It’s an opportunity to rediscover that mixed, direct and warm sound—designed for the stage and for listeners of chanson who enjoy travelling from one language to another.
