this week, the legendary buffalo rider, dao bandon! dao was born to a rice farming family in northeastern thailand's yasothon province. after 4th grade, his parents couldn't afford to continue sending him to school, and he was sent to live in a monastery and there continue his education. it was here that he realized his significant vocal gifts, by way of the rhythmic chant & preaching required by the vocation. he was discovered at temple by songwriter thepphabut satirotchomphu, who guaranteed him a career as molam when he left the monkhood. dao gave up his robes, and theppabhut made good on his promise. the talented young singer quickly won success, and would in fact become the first molam ever to sell one million copies! and he's still a big name today, whether it's on the lips of current pop stars or through the amazing re-issue work of zudrangma records. from the first listen, it should be obvious why.. enjoy!
