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

Biography

Dao's CD, The First Snows of 2002 (2002年的第一場雪), released in 2003, made him an instant star in China. He sang with Alan Tam on the debut "Can't Say Goodbye" (說不出的告別) in the Cantonese version and later, bilingual between Mandarin and Cantonese. His other albums include 2001's Songs from the Western Region .

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. 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" (a Hui Muslim song), and "At a Faraway Place" (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" 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 (山歌寥哉), based on the work of Pu Songling.^[1] In particular, his satirical song "Luochahai City" or Luosha Kingdom (罗刹海市) went viral.^[2] The song is based from The Raksha Country and the Sea Market.
