Thai rockers Bodyslam have long been fans of American rockers Mr Big and Extreme, so much so that Bodyslam’s frontman Artiwara “Toon” Kongmalai, guitarist Thanachai “Yod” Tantrakul, bassist Tanadol “Pid” Changsawek, drummer Suchatti “Chad” Janed and keyboardist Ohm Plengkhum, were very much in evidence when the former played in Bangkok.
Last year, Swarovski began a collaboration with designers from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing to create the Asian Symbolic Collection, combining popular Asian motifs with Swarovski’s craftsmanship.
