The First Queen of Thai Country Music, Pongsri Woranuch, Dead at 85 I was expecting Country and Western music sung by a Thai woman. I didn't know they were referring to Thai music by a Thai woman.
If you think I was being silly, you should look up Japanese, Chinese, and Korean bluegrass music.
Yes, they really play bluegrass music! :)

I've heard country performances in English from Japanese bands. First rate. I haven't heard this lady. Obviously good enough to rate a nice write-up. Some years ago I encountered Welsh country music. Many Welsh made their way to the US when the "temperance" movement drove the whiskey distillers away. Evan Williams and Maker's Mark are two well known brands. Linda Healy's "Amser" album features a song "Adre'n Ôl" that stylistically could be fresh out of the Grand Old Opry.

A Thai guy in my 5th Grade class was named Stretapol Chuchawat. Don't remember much about him. But I still have fond memories of his name!
