Khun Narin

Khun Narin's Electric Phin Band


It all started over a year ago with the caption MINDBLOWING PSYCHEDELIA FROM THAILAND " the Youtube video that accompanied this headline on the Dangerous Minds website was exactly that. Here was a group of Thai musicians being filmed parading through a remote village hundreds of miles away from Bangkok playing some of the heaviest Psych known to mankind out of a crazy homemade soundsystem. Six months after that first encounter with Khun Narins Electric Phin Band, a Los Angeles music producer named Josh Marcy used Facebook and interpreters at his local Thai restaurant to get in contact with the band and inquire whether theyd be interested in having him travel to their town to record their music for a global audience. At first the band was naturally suspicious, but through subsequent interactions the groups leader and namesake Khun Narin (also known simply as Rin) warmed to the idea of having Marcy come visit. Khun Narins Electric Phin Bands membership is always in rotation and spans several generations, from high school kids to men well into their 60s. A standard engagement has the band setting up at the hosting household during the morning rituals, playing several low-key sets from the comfort of plastic lawn chairs occasionally working in a cover version of a foreign classic (The Cranberries Zombie is a recent favourite) while the beer and whiskey flow freely.
