Din & Tonics

In keeping with the Siam City Hotel’s reputation for showcasing world-class talent, we are proud to welcome back Harvard’s very own Din & Tonics, or Dins. This signature all-male a cappella singing group is known around the world for its rich tradition of musical and performance excellence. With a repertoire centred on American jazz standards of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s, these 13 Harvard gentlemen – who perform in white tie, tails, and lime green socks – have garnered a large following thanks to their impeccable musicality, snappy choreography and hilarious antics.

 Since 1979 the Dins have been delighting audiences by combining the traditional with the unexpected; consistently adding original, humorous, engaging choreography to perform a cappella “with a twist”. The Dins have performed at Fenway Park, recorded an album in the legendary Sun Studios in Memphis, appeared in the Hollywood flick ‘Mona Lisa Smile’ and on Good Morning America, entertained former U.S. president Bill Clinton and even wowed the socks off Ella Fitzgerald, who said: “Gentlemen... not only were you entertaining and witty, but I was very impressed by your vocal skills and musicianship”.

Embarking on their eleventh world tour, Bangkok is just one of the many cities the Dins will visit in 2010. Others are Reykjavik, London, Luxembourg, Saarbrucken, Strasbourg, Berlin, Ljubljana, Cyprus, Seoul, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Osaka, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Sydney and San Francisco.

Strictly limited tickets are on sale at the Siam City Hotel for performances on Saturday July 31 at 8:00 p.m. and Sunday August 1 at 2:00 p.m. To make a booking or enquiry, please call (0) 2247-0123, ext. 1912, 1944.
