Gala Charity Dinner Performers
Dasha Logan
Dasha Logan has wanted to be a singer since she was a young girl. Her dream became a reality at 17 years of age when she first performed on stage. In the short few years that she has been singing, the petite girl from Penang has made a big impact on the Malaysian singing scene. Now she is a well-respected vocalist in her home town as well as Kuala Lumpur’s leading jazz venues of No Black Tie and Alexis.
It’s probably not a surprise that Dasha ended up in front of a microphone as she has music in her blood. Her grandmother was a singer and her late and inspirational father Loganathan Arumugam was co-vocalist in Malaysia’s most famous pop group of yesteryear, The Alleycats.
While Dasha’s unique musical style is rapidly evolving, she takes inspiration from singers such as Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, John Mayer, Esperanza Spalding and a cross section of her father’s rock heroes of the ‘70’s and ‘80’s. While she sings and admires various musical genres her roots are firmly rooted in jazz traditions. Dasha works closely with saxophonist and songwriter Adil Johan and arranger, composer and musician Daniel Veerapen.

Joanne Kam
The emancipation of Joanne Kam into the entertainment industry in the 90s, turned around and introduces a whole new meaning of comedy in the conservative night scene of Kuala Lumpur. The explosion of her talent on stage also catapulted the success of Kuala Lumpur’s first cabaret club called the Boom Boom Room. Boom Boom Room quickly became the Studio 54 of Kuala Lumpur with Joanne Kam, reigning as its risqué mistress, dishing out her scandalous jokes to her ocean of eager fans that commuted weekly to pay tribute to the “Diva Queen”. Kuala Lumpur was never the same again.
Joanne’s distinct style of acid tongue humor earned her the reputation of being one of the most notoriously funny lady on Malaysian stage. The audience just couldn’t get enough of her candid, risqué jokes.
Her outfits as well were a statement of their own, tight fitting sequins gowns with plunging necklines that accentuated Joanne’s full ample assets. Her style created a revolution and confidence booster for women of all shapes & sizes who started idolizing her for her daring fashion sense. Bigger-sized females in Kuala Lumpur began showing off their ample curves instead of covering up in sacks and having as much fun as their skinny counterparts. KL was shocked and in awe, and fell head over heels for this bawdy, voluptuous comedian.
