#Boss (บอส) Purich Phansook

[fyeahcindie]

F Yeah Thai Indie! Let's check out a really good band called KIKI. =D

The band are officially a trio:  Helena (เฮเลน่า) Amarantinis Phansook-Voc, Boss (บอส) Purich Phansook-Gtr/Synth, Non (นนท์) Tanon Sanglek-Guitar.

KIKI signed to Parinam Music (ปริณาม มิวสิค) in 2022. They have released 2 full albums, a bunch of singles and 2 EPs since 2021. The music is relaxed pop/rnb, with English lyrics. (Imagine a combination of Sunset Rollercoaster w/ The Fur.)

They have an all-star backing band:  PARIM-Backing Voc (she's a singer-songwriter), Bookiesh-Bass (fr. TELELLAMA), Pokepong Jitdee-Perc. (fr. Plastic Plastic, Gym and Swim), *Mudmee-Keys (fr. Gym and Swim), Tee-Drums (fr. Door Plant), Oat-Gtr (fr. Door Plant)

*Mudmee is playing keys here, but she's the drummer in Gym and Swim. Non & Mudmee are a couple, Helena & Boss are married. This is more complicated than Fleetwood Mac, lol.

Normally I would introduce a band w/ a studio recording, but with a full support band like this, the live sound is quite impressive. The song above was the last tune of a full live set posted in July.

They have a more recent live set recorded at CD COSMOS in November:

CD COSMOS is a great channel for live Thai sessions and clips. Here is a bouncy tune from Plastic Plastic, filmed in 2022 for a COSMOS event. Pleng Tongta Jitdee-Voc/Keys sings in both English and Thai, this one is in English:
