Sinn Sisamouth (alternate spellings: Sin Sisamouth, Sinn Sisamout/h, Sisamut/h or 'Si' with spacing e.g. Si Samouth; pronounced: Sinn Sis-sa-mott with a silent 'h') was a famous and highly prolific Cambodian singer-songwriter of the 1960s and 70s. Widely considered the "King of Khmer music," Samouth, along with Ros Sereysothea, Pan Ron and other artists, was part of a thriving pop music scene in Phnom Penh that blended elements of Khmer traditional music with the sounds of rhythm and blues and rock and roll to make a Westernized sound akin to psychedelic or garage rock. Samouth is believed to have been killed under the Khmer Rouge regime. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
