Who: Singaporean singer Jeff Ng, 34, is a familiar sight at The Cathay. He sometimes busks at the open space there on Saturday nights, doing on-the-spot song requests.

The large crowds he attracts have brought him places. On Oct 5, he held a ticketed show at Gateway Theatre. On Oct 19 and 20, he performed at the Michael Kors store at Mandarin Gallery, as part of the American fashion brand’s debut collaboration with a local artist.
