March

So yes, i know i have skipped the whole month of February. As some of you know, my mother has been recently admitted into ICU in Penang so I have mostly been on the island to be with her. She is improving a little more every day and, well, it has been quite a roller-coaster which I can't quite get into just yet. 

But anyway, it is a new month, and even though I am 11 days delayed, I am not too late to inform you of the shows which are coming up!

That's about it for now, =D

song of the month: Too Darn Hot, Anthony Strong


JANUARY 2015

Happy new year, folks!

This year I have decided to know my resolutions, instead of make new ones. Work hard, get there (wherever “there” is)

2014 came and left with many lessons, many happy (and sad) memories and a new way of seeing things. I am lucky. Sometimes, when things are getting difficult, just remember that the rewards after will just taste sweeter.

And so, I am more than excited to announce that the year kicks off with a gig!

2nd
Rils
Jalan Telawi 5, Bangsar

16 & 18
No Black Tie
Jalan Mesui

17th
Mezze

A lot is going to be happening real soon, planet! Look out for my brand new single coming out sometime soon too, “Leave your man”! I love love love this song and I can not wait for everyone to hear it and watch the video when it is ready for public eyes.

What can I say Malaysia, you have got me this far, help me go further?


Love,
dasha

The month I have been waiting for!

I am in a daze that this post is going to have to be short and sweet.



12dec – Rils, Bangsar, 10pm


16dec – No Black Tie, Jalan Mesui, Dasha’s birthday party, 9:30pm

Then it’s just weddings and I am taking a 2 week holiday!

So first of all, it has been CRAZY!

I don’t even know where to begin saying…..

OH MY GOD I CAN NOT BELIEVE “CLEVERLY” IS NOW NUMBER 1 ON THE UK SOUL CHART!!

WHAT’/!?!?!?!?!

I guess I want to thank people. And I want to say how I feel. And I want to point out that this feels like the beginning of something that is going to be amazing. And it’s actually kicking off! 10 years of working hard and grinding my teeth and trying to get myself heard, and I have finally reached level 1 of this insanely multi floored building to success in this industry. I may have started in the basement, but here I am, finally a floor up. One up, as the gamers say. =)

I have always had people around me who knew my destiny as well as I did. Like it was not even a question, I always knew I wanted to sing and knew that I would stop at nothing. Although, I admit I have had my doubts, days when I just wanted to throw in the towel and live a life that was comfortable and safe and reassuring. Here I am living it dangerously, undetermined and reckless. And finally, I have reached a point that can actually assure me that… all the hard work is not left unnoticed.

Thank you to the supporters who have and continue to support me, my music, and my lineage. And even to the people who have nothing nice to say about me, I want to thank you. Because if it was not for the hate you feel for me, I would never feel all the love that comes from the people who do. I only hope you find something today that would make you so happy, you wouldn’t find the need to hate.


BIG LOVE!!!!

Dasha Logan - Cleverly ft Paul Johnson (Official Video)



PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD, THIS IS FINALLY HERE!!!

Let’s make this short and sweet, shall we?

21st – Calavera First time performing here, come join Jimmy, Laura, Wei Li and myself as we bring the house down -  Skullish style.

22nd- Mezze
Back with my favorite men of jazz, we will be performing music that will make you tap your feet, sing along and bring back some old memories. =) why not? Can't wait to sing along to amazing pianist Michael Veerapen, bassist Daniel Foong and drummer boy, Steve Nanda. 




29th – Charity Raggae Night Come by The Scott Garden to catch me with Bassement Syndicates performing for a good cause. 

I hope to see everyone there! =) Next live shows may be a while so come catch us while you can!!! 

Where are the festivals?

The “–bers” are here at last, marking the quick rush of weeks before the end of the year. How time flies.

I have set goals for myself this year and I am proud to say I have reached 70% of those goals, with the biggest one of all, getting a song out into the world. Not just any song, an original song. Played internationally.  Jump-around-like-a-little-girl happy!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, there are no public shows this month. Lots of private shows which is good, busy is good! =)

However, I will be popping up around Kuala Lumpur. Guess you’ll have to follow me on Facebook for that. =) https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dasha-Logan/60022910933?ref=hl

Been keeping myself busy with cooking and reading and writing. Also going to challenge myself with a word a day with the help of Dictionary.com  so if you see me on the street, come up to me and ask me what the word of the day is. Whoa, really setting a challenge for myself.

Will definitely arrange some live shows for the remaining of the year. There’s nothing I love more than inviting people to shows. I finally got Spotify! I feel like I have not lived properly all this while until I got the app. Yikes.


So I will see you lovely people around town, have a great October, and if I were to give you any advice, it would be to get Christmas Gifts now. =D Beat the rush!

With the band who has mentored me as a singer and a performer, there is no end to how much I learn from them at every show. Whether it’s a song or a technique or how best to deliver a song, it’s a constant learning experience. And a whole lot of fun la!


Augustus Gloop!


Selamat Hari Raya!!!!

It has been a quite a month. Quiet, yes. But what a month. I lived it like a tourist, through the eyes of someone here for a visit and I have seen parts of my island and country that I have never seen before. It was quite a ride. So much has happened, and as always, still some things remain the same. 

ANYWAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

There's only one public show this month, so everyone who would like to see me and my band perform. keep the

22nd of August FREE!

I will be singing in RILS, show starts at 10 (but try to get there early because parking is a bitch) and goes on all the way till 12-ish. There is no cover charge so bring everyone down! 

And since we are on the topic of RILS I will also be there on the 6th of September. Just an early bit of infomation. 



Been traveling back and forth between Penang and Kuala Lumpur shooting with the Asean Food Chanel, also had my track Celeverly played on Jazz fm, London radio and shot a video for it which will be out soon! So much happening! Keeping surprisingly calm. Guess it's just about time. 

Song of the day : All Apologies.
