 San Lin Tun (lyricist/guitar instrumentalist)

San Lin Tun was born in Yangon, Myanmar. He began playing guitar during his middle school years alongside classmates Myo Min Latt and Nyan Lin Tun, alumni of BEHS No 1 Dagon. On weekends, they would gather at Myo's house near Yay Khel Sai Bus stop, next to the home of renowned Myanmar actor Bo Ba Ko.

His initial guitar lessons were with Ko Myo Sint in Taung Lone Pyan ward, Pazuntaung Township, a hub for music aficionados who also provided musical instruments for local concerts.

In 1990, he pursued music studies with celebrated Bassist Ko Zalyan, Lead Guitarist Ko Myo Tun, and Music instructor Ko Aung Ko Ko. Later, he shifted his focus to literature and began writing in English in 2007. However, in 2021, he revisited his musical roots, composing songs and instrumentals. By early 2023, he established a band called Musicos, marking a new phase in his musical journey. His debut song, လွမ်းနေသောငါ (Lwan Nay Tho Ngar), was recorded with Ko Cho Gyi of the August Six band and studio in Yay Kyaw Township. He shared the music video on Music Net and his YouTube channel, Lyricist San Lin Tun.

His inaugural instrumental album, "Acoustic Recital," featuring ten pieces, was released in March 2024.
