"Authenticity. You know it when you hear it, and if you’re listening to the Martini Kings you’re definitely hearing it. Lounge music is hot right now, but nobody plays it with that ice-cool, cigar-smoke & Dubonnet fifties vibe that the Martini Kings have. If you’re sharing a room with the Martini Kings don’t be surprized if you suddenly spill your drink. It’s the ghosts of Dino and Sammy brushing your elbow on their way to the bar.Formed in 1982 by the Philadelphia born Marsico brothers, the band has remained true to their dedication to a form of music known as West Coast jazz, a style of jazz music that developed around Los Angeles and San Francisco during the 1950's which features a less frenetic, calmer style than bebop and tends to be more heavily arranged, and more often composition- based. With 15 albums released to date and numerous gold and platinum albums to the members credits - the band with their Mid Century Modern looks and sound continue to wow music lovers throughout the U.S. and abroad as well as write songs for television and motion pictures. Their original songs can be heard in the HBO hits Entourage, Six Feet Under and beyond." http://www.martinikings.com
