Founded in 2001, and making their live debut in 2002, Dengue Fever emerged from the Los Angeles “Silver Lake scene,” playing their unique blend of sixties Cambodian pop and psychedelic rock. Two decades later, Dengue Fever has gone from performing ‘lost’ Khmer-rock covers to global pioneers, writing all-original material and performing live on no-less than five continents. Their music has been heard in such films as City of Ghosts and Broken Flowers, television shows True Blood and CSI Las Vegas and were the inspiration for the hit Lauren Yee play Cambodian Rock Band. They also have been profiled in numerous publications like the New York Times, NPR, Mojo, Wired, Uncut and numerous others. In 2017, the band reissued their debut and Escape from Dragon House on compact disc and digital as deluxe reissues.

Currently, Dengue Fever are in the studio finishing up a new album, their first since The Deepest Lake (2015) and planning a tour in support of the new album and back catalog reissues. More details will be announced later this year. Watch Dengue Fever performing live at Amoeba Music in Berkeley back in 2008 below.
