the Cute Lepers are a six/sometimes seven-piece band from Seattle, WA equally influenced by first wave punk, mod-revival, power pop, and the spirit of Johnny Thunders. Led by chief songwriter Steve E. Kix & occasional song writer Steve Kicks (both formerly of the Briefs), the band also mixes in hints of doo-wop, early 60’s rock ‘n’ roll and a load of female back-up vocals. The band has released several singles, three albums and embarked on numerous lengthy tours of the United States and Europe. Read more on Last.fm
