PRINCESS OF POP IS STILL THE ONE

Recently laopress.com interviewed Lao most famous female star.  We are very delighted by her success and it’s good thing that she has been doing for Lao entertainment across Asia and the world.  I am talking about….

Ketsana Vilaylack is a native of Savannakhet, Laos.   She is Lao American and has been living in New York, New York.  Currently she is in Bangkok, Thailand recording her latest album.  She has six albums released and the seventh is on its way.  It will be available just in time for Laos New Year, April 2001.  

Her past albums have been released in America, Canada, France, and Laos. She had also toured all these countries.  Out of the six albums that have been released, four are in English and two are in Lao.  Her style of music is mainly pop or dance music.  Many music fans in Australia hopefully will soon hear her materials.  

She’d performed in concerts with many top artists such as Khampa in France, Daraphet in Laos, Swanthong, Thongvone, Phone, and Khamturm in the USA.  She also did many concerts in many cities in Laos starting from the very north of Laos, Laung Prabang, to the very South, Pakse.  

Her recent extravaganza one was at AIDS Awareness concert with quest artists from Cambodia, China, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and Laos.  It was held at That Luang Square, Vientiane in December 23, 2000.  She was there representing Lao American.  The event, sponsored by the Ministry of Information and Culture and the Population Service International, was attended by thousands of young people.  

She signed a 3-year deal with Warner Chappell Music, New York back in July of 1999 as a writer/Composer.  After that She was in Laos touring.  

After the tour, August 2000, She was sent to Bangkok to record her English album, which she penned.   The album finished in December 2000.  Now she is waiting to finalise a distribution deal with Warner Music Asia.  This album will be released in seven major Asian countries; Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines excluding Japan and Indonesia.  US and Europe release will follow.   Time Warner, an American company, owns both Warner Chappell and Warner Music Asia.  They have affiliates throughout the world.
