Pink Martini featuring China Forbes - 30th Anniversary Tour!
In 1994, Thomas Lauderdale was working in local politics when he saw the need for inspiring music at political fundraisers. Drawing inspiration from music from all over the world – crossing genres of classical, jazz and old-fashioned pop – he founded the “little orchestra” Pink Martini to provide musical soundtracks for causes such as civil rights, affordable housing, environment, education, etc.
One year later, Lauderdale called China Forbes, asking her to join Pink Martini. Their first song writing collaboration was “Sympathique (Je ne veux pas travailler)” which became an overnight sensation in France. Featuring more than a dozen musicians, Pink Martini performs its multilingual repertoire throughout the world.
Pink Martini has released 11 studio albums on its own independent label Heinz Records, selling over 3 million albums worldwide.

En 1994, Thomas Lauderdale s’investit dans la politique locale et se rend compte que les collectes de fonds politiques auraient besoin de musique plus entraînante. S’inspirant de la musique du monde entier et croisant le classique, le jazz et la pop à l’ancienne, il fonde le « petit orchestre » Pink Martini afin de soutenir en musique des causes telles que les droits de la personne, le logement abordable, l’environnement et l’éducation.
Un an plus tard, le musicien contacte China Forbes et lui demande d’intégrer Pink Martini. Leur première chanson « Sympathique (Je ne veux pas travailler) » est un succès immédiat en France. Composé de plus d’une dizaine d’interprètes, Pink Martini présente son répertoire multilingue partout dans le monde.
