The Puppini Sisters
Current Mood: CC is listening to: Nothing right now Ever heard of the Puppini Sisters? I thought I'd blog about them after I mentioned them in a response to one of my previous blog entries.
They're a trio that specializes in close harmony vocal music, very much like the Andrews Sisters of the 1940s.
Now it's tyipcal to be hearing a group like the Puppini Sisters sing Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy...
But not quite as typical to hear them sing Beyonce's Crazy In Love...
Or the Bangles' Walk Like an Egyptian...
Or Blondie's Heart of Glass...
Or for that matter, Barry Manilow's Could it Be Magic.
They're not touring anywhere near Memphis at the moment, but I definitely want to see them as soon as they perform within driving distance :-).
What I found interesting reading about them was that Marcella Puppini, the brunette, founded the trio after she was inspired by the film The Triplets of Belleville. Remember that film I talked about a while back, the French film with the grandmother, the dog, and the grandson who was in the Tour de France and got kidnapped? That's the one :-).
