About Me


Check out our friend’s website with cool punk rock and rock ‘n’ roll t-shirts and record label and more!
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 one 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_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Single News as of 07/18/07-1ST PRESS SOLD OUT!!!!!! We have around 100 in our possesion to sell on tour, but, y'know... hopefully they go fast. We gave the okay to 1234-GO! to press another 1000. We're not gonna get all nerdy with a bunch of colors on this one, but the first 200 will be on Green Vinyl and the rest on Classic Ebony.
