Change isn’t always easy — especially when the person you once knew starts to feel like a stranger. That’s the emotional core of “KON LA KON (คนละคน),” the latest release from Thai trio Ford Trio, and the first taste of what’s to come from their new album.
If you’re unfamiliar with Ford Trio, here’s a quick intro: they’re the kind of band that doesn’t play by the rules. Fusing Neo Soul, Alternative Rock, and Psychedelic with Thai musical sensibilities, they’ve carved out a sound that’s instantly recognizable. And they’re not just doing it for local fans — their 2024 collaborative EP with Taiwanese duo Mong Tong got international ears buzzing. That success led to a whirlwind of live gigs, both in Thailand and abroad. Now, they’re back in the studio, doubling down on their signature style — a bold genre they call Neo Thai Funk.
“KON LA KON” translates to “a different person,” and the track leans into that theme — not just in the lyrics, but in the way the music shifts and evolves from start to finish. From a head-turning guitar riff to shape-shifting arrangements, the song mirrors the messy, unpredictable nature of relationships. It’s about realizing someone’s changed and figuring out how to respond: do you let go, or do you grow with them?
The sound itself is complex but catchy — enough to pull you in on first listen, and layered enough to keep you coming back. With a sound this textured and lyrics that hit close to home, Ford Trio proves once again that they’re not afraid to explore big emotions through bold musical choices.
Whether you’re a longtime listener or just discovering them, “KON LA KON” is the perfect entry point into Ford Trio’s ever-evolving world. And with a new album on the way, there’s never been a better time to tune in.
