80s Pop Star Martika Talks About OPPERA
The 1989 pop star and singer of the #1 hit “Toy Soldier” has risen from musical obscurity with her new goth band OPPERA, and she’s convinced that they’re going to make it big.
OPPERA, a goth-pop group she fronts with her husband, musician Michael Mozart, plays the intimate Perking Latte Cafe, 840 Castleton Ave., in West Brighton, Wednesday at 8. Admission is free.
“At some point that won’t really be possible,” she said. “Imagine Aerosmith at Perking Latte. We definitely are aspiring to have that type of career. To be like the really big successful bands that have the longevity to be legendary. Why do it if we’re not going to shoot for the top?”
Well, much luck to OPPERA and Martika on her ambitions.
