Live Video: Radio from August Band concert Let's Swing Aha! Aha! Concert
Pchy and the rest of the boys obviously haven't grown into their pop persona fully. The awkward, dangerously corny 70s dance moves just make them all the more endearing.
Biography: August Band
August (or August Band) began as an on-screen band in the popular Thai film The Love of Siam. It became a real band with Witwisit Hiranyawongkul a.k.a. “Pchy” as lead singer along with 10 other members. The band began their group career singing at the Love of Siam’s promotional events in Thailand, but since them have been a part of other music festivals and events. They released their album August*Thanx in February 2008.
Pchy continues to sing on stage regularly with his band, August.
To create widespread awareness about the campaign, Dove has invited Pchy and Chukiat Sakweerakul to compose and sing a very special song entitled "Chao Wan Mai" (Better Morning). The song was composed especially for Dove and reflects Dove’s commitment to empowering women, for them to gain more self-confidence, feel good about their own selves, and encourage them into making something good for themselves and society every morning. The CD, which is not for sale, will be given to women throughout Bangkok, together with Dove Therapy System with Repairing Serum samples.
August Band also appeared in a TV commercial for Mama instant noodles.
The public, of course, demands more appearances from Pchy. However, Pchy wants to concentrate on his studies: "If the job offered is in conflict with my studies, I won't take it." Chukiat who is also songwriter and producer for August told Lips Magazine that Pchy really feels part of August band and he would not take job offers that ask him to go solo. As Thai schools are in summer break between March - Early June 2008, August (whose members are all students) has held several mini-concerts in Bangkok. The Band also played an auditorium concert in Chiang Mai on April 5-6, 2008.
Spending most of their weekends practicing music, the August Band continues to perform on stage regularly. The band plans to release their sophomore album in October-November 2008. August's new album has been named "Radiodrome." The first single "Sunshine" has been aired on radio starting from August 27, 2008 (on FMMax 94.5) and September 1, 2008 (for all radio stations). The full album is scheduled to be released in November 2008.
Pchy also sings a theme song for a stage play by his university faculty. The stage play is called "Dear Passenger" and start showing in September 2008. The theme song is called Peek (Wings).
