Started by the singer-songwriter Kanyapak “Pie” Wuttara as her acoustic project, My Life As Ali Thomas evolved into a full-fledged alternative folk quartet based in Bangkok that’s deservedly attracting attention of the local indie public.
Initially, “Daughter and Son” was one of Pie’s acoustic songs. Eventually, it’s received a full-band treatment and this ultimate version of the track perfectly demonstrates My Life’s many-sided talent.
They start with an acoustic folk song, gradually expand the sound to a proper radio chorus, to finish off with an semi-orchestral post-rock coda. All if that in just over four minutes.
Released a week ago, the hallucinatory video for “Daughter and Son” (directed by Isara Uthaichalanond and Parking Toys Watt) officially announces My Life As Ali Thomas’ debut album. Currently being recorded in the studio, it is due to come out at the beginning of the next year, and we truly can’t wait.
