Pink Martini is a great blend of genres (Latin, Lounge, Classical, Jazz) each of which seem to bend effortlessly to the will of these talented musicians, and feels worldly without actually being world music.
The band is originally from Portland Oregon, and they're one of the few groups I would be willing to get on a plane and fly to a different city in order to see live.
Since I'm not a musician, for me the big appeal of the group is the lead singer, China Forbes, who also has a great solo album. China has a great personality and range, and always seems to be giving her all to really sell each song.
