Dengue Fever. How can you not love a band with a name like that? Although the band is based in Los Angeles, the name makes some sense: The lead singer is Cambodian. The Los Angeles Times proclaimed Thursday: “Sixties surf and pop songs may be the group’s source material, but add the stunningly acrobatic vocals of a modern-day Phnom Penh pop star singing in her native tongue and the result is oddly striking.” The Times’ story is available online only to long-term registered users, but a local alternative weekly features a short report here (fourth item down).
