The Cute Lepers

The Cute Lepers: Originally the idea for the band was that it was to be something equally influenced by first wave punk, mod-revival, power pop, and a retarded reverence for Johnny Thunders... oh yeah, with occasional hints of doo-wop, oldie rock'n'roll and a load of female back-up vocals. I still think this is an excellent idea, but as the band has really come together over the last few months, I am starting to think a barbershop septet composition may not feel out of place. We've got a album "in the can", and we're currently looking for a home for it. In the meantime, when not playing shows, we'll be cruising vintage vespas, hanging around greyhound bus stations, contemplating hairdos, and working on the next album. It's gonna be a blast, and artistically... hey, sky's the limit! We've got a lot of voices to work with and we happen to know some very stylish horn players. Thanks to everyone who picked up the first single and we're looking forward to beating our songs into your heads on tour in 2007/2008! ---Steve _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
