Carabao Member 'Dum' Launches New Band 'SweetCane'
Ekman 'Dum' Piset, a member of the legendary band Carabao, has debuted his new project, SweetCane, with the release of their first single, 'Phrung Nee Khong Rao' (Our Tomorrow).
Ekman 'Dum' Piset, known for joining the iconic Thai band Carabao following their 40th-anniversary concert, has officially introduced his new musical project, SweetCane. According to Khaosod Online, the band marks a creative outlet for Dum to explore themes and musical styles that resonate with his own generation, while maintaining his commitment to Carabao.
SweetCane is a reunion of high school friends from Panatpittayakarn School in Chonburi province. The group previously performed together under the name 'Success' before pursuing individual paths. Their debut single, 'Phrung Nee Khong Rao' (Our Tomorrow), focuses on themes of friendship, dreams, and the uncertainty of the future.
For residents and travelers interested in the local Thai music scene, this project highlights the ongoing evolution of established artists who seek to bridge the gap between legendary rock traditions and contemporary youth culture. While the band has launched this initial single, it remains to be seen how they will balance their touring and recording schedules alongside Dum’s responsibilities with Carabao. Fans of the Thai rock scene may find this a notable development in the career of one of the industry's newer faces.
