This is Dengue Fever and video is for their song "Seeing Hands", which I've been hearing on Pandora. I did about 2 minutes of Internet research and found that the band is from Los Angeles. They have an excellent mix of styles I could pick out some jazz, pop, lite punk, surf, psychadelic. The lead singer is Cambodian and sings in Khmer and English. Their works (2003-2008) are a mix of covers of old Cambodian pop songs and their own compositions. Dengue Fever is something completely different and not just because of the language of most of the song lyrics. Click on their name, above in yellow, to see their MySpace page - especially interesting is the documentary film Sleepwalking Through the Mekong. It chronicles the band's tour of Cambodia, focusing on the homecoming it represents for the lead singer.

Despite the thousands of pages I'll have to read between now and then, I'm seriously contemplating going to see this band April 18.
