Biography
Brothers Ethan (keyboards) and Zac (guitar) Holtzman started Dengue Fever in 2001 when they discovered they shared a love for the Cambodian pop music of the 60s. After adding sax man David Ralicke (Beck/Brazzaville), drummer Paul Smith and bassist Senon Williams, they went looking for a Cambodian singer. Enter Chhom Nimol, who performed regularly for the King and Queen of Cambodia. Her powerful singing, marked by a luminous vibrato that adds exotic ornamentations to her vocal lines, and hypnotic stage moves based on traditional dances, complemented the band’s driving Cambodian/American sound.

"Dengue Fever’s psychedelic take on the Cambodian pop sounds of the 60s " It makes it seem like the psychedelic part was their idea, and not integral part of Cambodian rock of the latter half of the 60's and the first half of the 70's. They're pretty good, yes, but they're essentially revivalists.

OK, review and photos finally posted (Eugene WOW Hall show). Direct link: http://pacificlectic.com/2012/02/09/secretchiefs3-oregon2012/ Due to a late night and a long drive home, I sadly didn't get to stick around for DF's set in PDX. :(

@black-rock-sand I totally agree with your Babazula connection.

I would like to connect the turkish band Baba Zula to Dengue Fever. They come from totally different edges of the world, but both use traditional music and instruments for their great psychedelic sounds.
