By Lauren Willson

Now there are two shows to looks forward to this May!

In addition to getting your tickets sorted for Lady Gaga, don’t miss out on the indie music scene with Asobi Seksu. The New York City dream pop quartet’s first stop on their Asian tour lands them in our bustling city of Bangkok.

The band, whose name translates to “Fun Sex” in Japanese, brings ephemeral guitar melodies draped with lead singer Yuki Chikudate’s soft yet edgy, synthesized vocals. Ms. Chikudate was born in Japan, but grew up in California and left her family for life in New York City at the tender age of 16. Their most recent album, Fluorescence, was released last year however their 2006 album, Citrus, climbed the British Indie Chart. Come and be mesmerized.

The show will be at the freshly opened venue Sonic on Ekkamai Soi 9 on Wednesday, May 9. Tickets are THB800 in advance (available at BJ Siam nest to Hard Rock Cafe) and THB1000 at the door.
