Like Luk Thung is a genre of THAI music that originated in the 1960s. It is a combination of traditional folk music and modern pop music, and is characterized by its use of traditional instruments such as the phin (a four-stringed lute) and khaen (a bamboo mouth organ). The lyrics often focus on rural life and the struggles of the working class. The genre has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many artists releasing albums and performing live shows.
