Salin

Montreal, Quebec

Salin is a Thai-born, Canada-based drummer, Juno nominated producer and composer.

Her current music explores the enchanting sounds of Northeast Thailand and marries it with the 70’s psychedelia of West Africa, all through the lens of modern soulful production, in which she coined this new genre “Afro Isan Soul.” Through her music, she ponders themes of identity, spirituality, and humanity, all paired with a dose of fun to create a unique sonic journey for her listeners.

With recent appearances on Chanel’s Summer Tour in Bangkok, New Winter Jazz Festival and embarking on her first US headline shows,,she showcased traditional Thai instruments mixed with Jazz. She recently released her album ‘Rammana’ which was created with both local Thai and Canadian musicians, bringing together elements of East and West. This album has received wide acclaim and Salin recently featured on BBC 6Music and a KEXP live performance.
