About The Martini Kings: The Martini Kings are beloved by all for their suave style and authentic West Coast Jazz sound with an exotic combination of retro classics, jazzy standards, and bossa novas. There isn’t a style of music that the band’s frontman, Tony Marsico, isn’t skilled at playing. From hard rock to country western, Marsico has performed with some very famous names, from Sammy Davis Jr. to Bob Dylan, as well as creating his own fame. He formed The Martini Kings, with his brother, Frank Marsico, in 1982, back before lounge music was even “a thing”, so mark that one up to being a musical visionary. The Martini Kings have played everywhere and have had their music as part of the soundtrack of hit TV shows such as “Six Feet Under” and “Entourage”. They’ve performed for everyone from Oscar winner actor/director Clint Eastwood, Kim Kardashian, Arnold Schwarzenegger, author Stephen King, to Grammy superstar Carole King. The exceptionally talented members of this band have credits on gold and platinum records. The Martini Kings have produced a wealth of albums, ’Smile’ being their 20th. It’s also their first full-length vocal album.
