If someone asked you for a list of tunes/artists that play in a "50's Martini Lounge" style, what would you suggest? We have a gig where we're going to be just fine, I'm sure, but I'm just curious about what else is out there that would fit in this style. If you have some tunes you could post (or links to some), that would be fantastic! Mahalo, Kanekila
