Luo Lin (Chinese: 罗林; pinyin: Luó Lín; born 22 June 1971), known professionally as Dao Lang (Chinese: かたなろう; pinyin: Dāo Láng), is a Chinese singer from Sichuan.

Biography

[edit]

Dao's CD, 2002ねんてきだい一場いちじょうせつ (The First Snows of 2002), 2002 Niande Diyi Chang Xue in pinyin, released in 2003, made him an instant star in China. He sang with Alan Tam on the debut "Can't Say Goodbye" (せつ不出ふしゅつてき告別こくべつ) in the Cantonese version and later, bilingual between Mandarin and Cantonese. His other albums include 2001's Songs from the Western Region (see the external link below).

Dao toured the Chinese cities of Chengdu, Chongqing, and Xi'an, as well as the autonomous region of Tibet, for more than four years as a young bar-hopping musician (see external link). He has been called the "Wang Luobin of the 21st century" and has performed modern rock adaptations of several of Wang Luobin's Western China-inspired folk songs, such as "Awariguli" (a Xinjiang Uyghur folk love song), "Flowers and Youth" (pinyin: Hua'er Yu Shaonian, a Hui Muslim song), and "At a Faraway Place" (pinyin: Zai Na Yaoyuan De Difang", a song from western China's Qinghai). He has also performed modern adaptations of such renowned old Chinese folk songs as "The Grapes of Turpan are Ripe" (pinyin: Tulufan De Putao Shu Liao) and the famous revolutionary song "Nanniwan".

Dao experienced a surge of popularity in 2023 with the release of his album There Are a Few Folk Songs (やま寥哉), based on the work of Pu Songling.[1] In particular, his satirical song Luochahai City or Luosha Kingdom (罗刹うみ) went viral.[2] The song is based from The Raksha Country and the Sea Market.

Awards

[edit]

Dao was considered by the Beijing Music Society [3] in 2002 as the best pop singer and artist of the year.[4] The only other young artists that had received this honor were Cui Jian in 1987 and Huang Yujie in 2008.
