25 years in the making! Pink Martini bandleader Thomas Lauderdale’s rumored collaboration with legendary surf rock sensations, Satan’s Pilgrims, was buried on several tapes deep in a closet in Lauderdale’s Portland, OR home.
During Pink Martini’s pandemic hiatus, Lauderdale unearthed and finally finished this long-awaited album, recorded concurrently with Pink Martini’s seminal, beloved debut “Sympathique.”. Buoyed by Lauderdale’s sparkling piano fireworks atop the Pilgrims’ iconic surf rock sound, the album features blazing interpretations of beloved standards such as “Night and Day,” “MalagueƱa” and “Rhapsody in Blue” alongside dazzling classic surf excursions, to create the perfect summer party record you can play all year round.
