Thai boy group LYKN are now stepping confidently onto the global stage. These T-pop rising stars have already taken over their side of the world, and now it’s time for them to share their music with the West.

Formed through Project Alpha, the reality competition launched by GMMTV, the five-member group officially debuted on May 5, 2023, with the single May I?, immediately distinguishing themselves through great choreography and unusually stable live vocals. In just two years, they have grown from rookies to one of Thailand’s most internationally visible boy groups.

The lineup – William (main vocalist), Lego (main dancer), Nut (lead dancer), Hong (main rapper), and Tui (lead vocalist/rapper and songwriter) – brings together varied artistic foundations, from musical theatre and vocal competitions to hip-hop dance crews. That diversity translates directly into their sound: contemporary pop and R&B with hooks built for mass sing-alongs, offset by vocal-driven ballads that demonstrate their emotional range.

But it’s on stage where LYKN truly separate themselves.

Their concerts have become synonymous with tight, high-impact choreography, live vocal stability, and a great sense of narrative flow. Rather than simply performing tracks back-to-back, their shows are structured and cinematic – an approach that has earned them a reputation as one of T-pop’s strongest live acts. Multiple sold-out concerts, including arena-scale dates in Thailand, and appearances across Japan, Indonesia, Singapore, Cambodia, and beyond have only strengthened that reputation.

Their growing list of awards, including major “Best New Artist” and “Best Boy Group” wins, also showed that they have been recognized by the music industry. At the same time, the group has expanded into acting, starring together in the music-themed series ThamePo: Heart That Skips a Beat, further showing their presence as all-round entertainers.

Now, LYKN are entering a new era.

With their first studio album, Dusk & Dawn, and the symbolic DAWN concept, the group frames this chapter as one of “renewal and international connection”. The idea is simple but ambitious: bring their energy, emotionally intimate performance style to theatres and mid-sized venues where audiences can feel their closeness.

That vision becomes reality in 2026, when LYKN set out on their first European tour, stopping in Warsaw, Berlin, Paris, Milan, and London, each city marking a debut appearance.

Once trainees on a survival show, LYKN are now award-winning performers playing to international audiences and helping push T-pop onto the global stage, and we love it!
