Press Reviews
"If you like the extreme lounge scene with a heavy Nick Cave flavor (sorry, that comment is inescapable from what I've seen of them and not in a bad way) you've got to drag yourself out if need be and have a look. With lyrics that will drag you down right in the gutter and then laugh as they kick you in the head." - Morticia, Flipside Magazine -- "If it's highballs, martinis and Tony Bennett you crave, Cuba Las Vegas and their syrupy croon-and-swoon lounge ballads will work their way through your veins like a dark lethargic lullaby." - Jen hitchock, LA Weekly -- "If Jim Morrison hadn't chosen to pull the plug with booze, dope and Mr. Bubble (way to go, Jim...), and had lived to try a second career as an angry lounge crooner, he might very well have become Steve Dietrich of Cuba Las Vegas." - Pete Brooks, Downtown Gazette |
