About This Event
At Pianos, Dance Break Interlude shares a bill with Pink Lady and Frank and the Freaks. Pink Lady — the Japanese duo Mie and Kei best known for the short-lived 1980 NBC variety series Pink Lady and Jeff, a program marked by title disputes, script and booking problems and a language barrier — appears here in a downtown rock/pop club setting.
About the Artist
Pink Lady
kayōkyokuenkacity popj-pop
Pink Lady is the Japanese pop duo Mie and Kei, rooted in postwar kayōkyoku and later associated with city pop and J-pop. U.S. audiences often encountered them through a brief 1980 NBC variety project with comedian Jeff Altman, a run complicated by naming disputes, production issues, and the pair’s limited English at the time.
