Some Lao people are shy to sing Morlum, while this Farang (foreigner) from america loves Lao music. Check out his latest album to be fully released soon.



Jonny Olsen is from L.A. California in the U.S.A.  He can sing Morlum and plays Lao traditional instrument known as Khaen. He learned in Thailand and Laos. He made his cd titled " Farang Yak Bpen Morlum".


He has been to Vientiane many times. He is well known in down town Vientiane because he always entertain audience with his Khaen playing.


Currently he is touring in the USA. For those who enjoy classic Lao traditional music, don't miss this opportunity. He is also going to have his vcd out pretty soon. To listen to Farang playing Khaen and Lum in Lao visit his space at www.myspace.com/jonnyplayskhaen


For your information. Did you know Jonny Olsen won a khaen contest in Khonkaen province, Thailand. He is the first westerner known to win a khaen playing contest.

Yes, one day Laos would be a heaven for all people around the world, I guess. It's time for Laos to try to create such a condition, since Laos want to develop country through tourist industry. 

No matter what race they have, as long as they are talent and can give a huge contribution to Lao development under Lao flag, that would be fine for Lao people. 

That would only improve Lao people life, no doubt.
