Los Angeles based band formed in the early 2000s, Dengue Fever fuses Khmer-Rock with modern Indie Rock. With a unique sound that blends Cambodian pop music from the 1960s and 70s with contemporary Western influences, *Dengue Fever* has created a captivating musical experience that transports listeners to another time and place.

Inspired by legendary Cambodian artists such as *Yol Aularong*, *Sinn Sisamouth*, and *Pan Ron*, Dengue Fever pays homage to their rich musical heritage while adding their own modern twist. Their eclectic style has drawn comparisons to diverse acts like *The Cambodian Space Project*, *Holly Golightly*, and even African bands like *Tinariwen* and *Bombino*. 

Known for their energetic live performances, Dengue Fever has gained a dedicated following around the world. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of genres including Ethiopian jazz (*Mulatu Astatke*), experimental rock (*CAN*), and even Thai funk (*The Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band*), they continue to push boundaries and defy categorization.

2013 release, the sophomore album from the Los Angeles band that fuses Cambodian Pop with Psychedelic Rock. Dengue Fever are anything but mainstream. There is virtually no other band in the world playing "Khmer Rock," the style of 1960s Cambodian rock derived from Armed Forces Radio in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. Venus on Earth features 11 original songs that expand on the band's sound but will please hardcore fans of both the group and the genre. There is no other band like Dengue Fever, which garners fans in everyone from indie kids to well-heeled world music consumers.
