Lyrics - music by : Lauderdale/Forbes

"Hang On Little Tomato" is the second full-length album from the band Pink Martini. Seven years after their debut album, it was released on October 19, 2004 by Pink Martini's own record label, Heinz Records. It has sold over 550,000 copies, reached #1 on Amazon.com, and gone Gold in France, Canada, Greece, and Turkey. As a change from their first album, Pink Martini's second album Hang On Little Tomato features mostly original songs written by band members, and sung in six different languages (French, Italian, Japanese, Croatian, Spanish, and English). The song title is a reference to the Hunt's Ketchup ad campaign Hang On, Little Tomato! in a 1964 issue of Life magazine.



From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pink Martini is a 13-member "little orchestra"[1] from Portland, Oregon, formed in 1994 by pianist Thomas M. Lauderdale. They draw inspiration from music from all over the world – crossing genres of classical, jazz and old-fashioned pop. Band leader Thomas Lauderdale describes the band's sound as "music of the world without being world music. If the United Nations had a house band in 1962 hopefully Pink Martini would be that band." "My hope is that we’re creating exquisite musical wallpaper which can be turned up or down, and played on almost any occasion.
