โต๋ Saksit Vejsupaporn, or TOR, was influenced by music from a very early age. His father, Nakorn Vejsupaporn, was a prominent figure from the renowned ‘80s Thai pop band Grand Ex, so TOR Saksit was no stranger to the Thai music industry. TOR started playing piano at the age of three and through the years, his expertise at the keys caught the attention of world-renowned pianist Richard Clayderman, who invited TOR to join him on stage when Clayderman played a concert in Bangkok. His star started to shine from that point on, making an impression with various Thai producers, including Boyd Kosiyabong, producer-songwriter and founder of the indie music record label Bakery Music. Boyd asked TOR to join his music project called B5 along with four other promising young artists. Under B5, TOR released his debut album Event. Over the years, B5 became very popular, releasing numerous albums until TOR was ready to branch out as a solo artist. His official solo debut album called ToR+ Living in C Major was released in 2007 and was an immediate hit. Leading the success of the album was the smash hit single “Rak Thur”.
