Dengue Fever Puts on a Great Show!

Chhom Nimol, Senon Williams and Zak Holtzman of Dengue Fever.

Dengue Fever played The Loft Saturday night and were a hit with a small but appreciative crowd. The band is made up of LA-based musicians, all American save the lead singer who is Cambodian.  They perform mostly Cambodian pop covers from the 1960's, leaving the melodies bouncing around in your head for hours after you hear them.  The crowd ate it up, dancing throughout the two sets.  There was a woman next to me who did not stop hopping the entire time - she knew all the Cambodian lyrics too.
