R&B and pop duo Firzter made their debut in June 2023, and comprises former LAZ Icon contestants ‘First’ Sirinat Srichonlatarn and ‘Chester’ Thanapol Srirattanapaitoon (‘Firzter’ is an amalgamation of both their names!) More recently, the musical duo (both play multiple instruments and dabble in songwriting) worked with Grammy Gold’s New Country to release remakes of each other’s debut singles.
4. DIDIxDADA
Truly embodying the meaning of ‘musical duo’ in every sense of the word, DIDIxDADA are a pair of twin sisters signed under LiT Entertainment. While they made their debut in 2022, it would not be until 2023 when their single จังหวะตกหลุมรัก (Magic Moment) rocketed the sisters to popularity.

6. PAPER PLANES
Paper Planes began as an emo-rock trio, but it would only be in 2022, with the departure of their guitarist Yok that the duo would go on to achieve mainstream success. Paper Planes, signed to Genie Records, comprises vocalist ‘Hye’ Tunwa Ketsuwan and bassist ‘Sen’ Nakarin Khunphukdee. The duo recently released new music after a hiatus of several months.
7. FELLOW FELLOW
Most of us might know Kicks Records’ fellow fellow from their wildly-successful single ดาวหางฮัลเลย์ (Halley’s Comet), but did you know the duo actually made their debut more than a decade ago? The pop-rock pair were formerly with Tero Music until 2022 when they changed labels. The rest, as they say, is history.
8. WHAL & DOLPH
The What The Duck duo, whose name is actually shortened from marine animals Whale and Dolphin, started in 2017 with their brand of folk-pop. The duo recently released ดีใจรึเปล่า (D Jai).
