28th April 2014: Dotters’ Division at Table 23, Jalan Mesui, Kuala Lumpur!

It was the first time I’d see them at Table 23. Melissa’s voice was super clear!

Rebecca on cajon, and Melissa on acoustic guitar, left more space for Melissa’s vocals to ring – and ring they did, from all the way inside! I was thinking how remarkably clear it was.

“Eh don’t lah I shy.”

Linet, on keyboard. It’s also her birthday at the time I’m posting this. Happy Birthday!

Jie Er, on bass.

We now interrupt the show with an immense display of cuteness.

The puppy stopped to watch, too.

Don’t know what went on here but Melissa was probably being sasau.

Oh, and Audrey on saxophone! She does a fair bit of solo melody work (as do the keyboards), that contributes to their unique reworking of many songs. However, they kept it close with covers of Bee Gees – Night Fever and Prince – Purple Rain.

Nearly a month later, 26th May 2014, Dotters’ Division at Table 23, Jalan Mesui, Kuala Lumpur! (Oh yes, see a theme here?)

It was a rainy Monday.

Sure didn’t stop them from bringing the groove on!

That thing that makes unicorn rainbow sounds.

SQUIRREL!

They generally cover the funk and soul of the 60’s all the way to today’s music.

I enjoy their occasional switchup of setlists.

Going for something different here.

In case y’all don’t know it.

And now, for a special request! I saw them doing this bouncy groove in a video from way back, and asked if they could do it again. So here’s an acoustic rendition of War – Low Rider!
