In its long lifespan, Thailand's singing competition The Star has discovered a wealth of grassroots talents, belting their way into the limelight. Ambitions run rampant on the show's stage, with a roster of Star alumni that's stacked with eclectic styles. Bie Sukrit made his name with high-flying dance pop numbers, while Tono Phakin and Gun Napat offer up alternative ballads and smouldering R&B-flecked melodies. But there's plenty of room for the timeless beauty of vocal pop here, too—and fresh, modern takes on a party-ready sound.
