Bamm! These Indie Artists Are Coming to Bangkok (Updated)

Update April 27: British duo Bondax and hip-hop producer Mndsgn were added to the lineup. They will play on May 3 at a not-yet-announced venue. 

BANGKOK — The indie music scene in Bangkok is raging. Adding some bam to that boom, a new festival’s partial lineup of international acts was revealed Friday.

Three Texans called Khruangbin with a yen for playing ‘60s Thai funk, a Londoner-by-way-of-Portland producer calling himself Yung Bae and a young soulful Brit named Cosmo Pyke will be among five international performances in the Bamm festival series starting next month.

They’ll also be joined by an American folk singer-songwriter called Iron & Wine and Parisian multi-instrumentalist FKJ.

The schedule and tickets are available online at different rates. Catch all five concerts for 2,990 baht.

BAMM, or Bangkok Art and Music Month, is a new music festival series in Bangkok.
