Dengue Fever – “Ting Mong”
Dengue Fever is celebrating 20 years as a band with their new album Ting Mong. The band was on hiatus until 2019 when they reconvened, exploring new music, and then the Covid pandemic. The result is this new record.
“In Cambodian culture, a Ting Mong is an effigy of protection, a scarecrow-like figure usually placed at the entrance of a village or a home. It wards off diseases and evil spirits. We’re all in desperate need of a Ting Mong.” – denguefever,music.com
Senon Williams and Zac Holtzman join Baruch to discuss the formation of the band, the inspiration and the process of making this music, and the healing from the war that this music brings.
The band consists of Chhom Nimol vocals, Zac Holtzman guitar/vocals, Ethan Holtzman keyboards, David Ralicke horns, Paul Smith drums and Senon Williams bass.
