“Dengue Fever and Pollyn hold it down at the Mint tonight, bringing irresistible jams to ring in the New Year. Pairing Pollyn's lush electronica with Dengue Fever's '60s-inflected Cambodian pop/rock style tunes evoking a Mekong riverboat party, the show is guaranteed to get you dancing right on into 2010.”
Jane McCarthy, Flavorpill
Pollyn at 10pm
Dengue Fever at 11:30pm
DENGUE FEVER's psychedelic take on the Cambodian pop sounds of the 60s makes them one of rock'n'roll's most unique success stories. The band's latest release, the documentary feature film Sleepwalking Through The Mekong (DVD/CD Soundtrack) continues the story and evolution of the band as they travel to Cambodia as the first Western group to perform the music of Cambodia since the fall of the Khmer Rouge.
The Los Angeles trio, POLLYN, wrote and produced This Little Night. It was mixed by Kristian Riley and Dave Cooley (Silversun Pickups, Darker My Love, and Jaylib). Pollyn has also produced official remixes for Gorillaz, Buffalo Daughter, Liquid Liquid, and Health. Pulling influences from Massive Attack to Talking Heads to Billie Holiday, Pollyn's sound is unique and bold, but comfortingly familiar. Celebrate NYE at The Mint. Dinner from 7:30-9:15, make your reservations now.
