The Cute Lepers

As copied and pasted from www.myspace.com/thecutelepers The Cute Lepers are a six/seven piece band from Seattle, WA equally influenced by first wave punk, mod-revival, power pop, and a soft spot in our hearts for Johnny Thunders... oh yeah, with occasional hints of doo-wop, early 60's rock'n'roll and a load of female back-up vocals. After a couple sold out singles and lengthy tours of the United States and Europe, in the summer of 2008 our debut album "Can't Stand Modern Music" was released on Damaged Goods in the U.
