Taiwan's Jam Hsiao to perform in Singapore in October, will sing for three hours
Taiwanese singer Jam Hsiao will be staging a concert in Singapore in October.
The show's confirmation came from the 38-year-old's lips, when he attended the 35th anniversary celebration of health and wellness company Best World Lifestyle as a special guest.
During the June 26 event at Singapore Expo, the star took the stage. He sang rock number Princess (2009) while holding a yellow microphone and dressed in a grey get-up and black tie.
Local concert promoters Live Nation Singapore and One Production posted a video of the performance to their Instagram pages on June 28.
In it, Hsiao addressed the crowd and said: 'I will be coming to Singapore to hold a concert (in October). Hope to see you all there. We will sing for about three hours then, okay?'
Details such as the date and location are not yet available. He last held a concert here in 2018 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, and also headlined the Sundown Festival in 2023 at Pasir Panjang Power Station.
While the Golden Melody Award winner appeared cheerful onstage, he recently had to deal with the death of one of his dogs.
Gabi was hospitalised in Taipei due to health conditions a few days before the singer had to leave for Shenzhen to hold a concert on June 21.
In a post on June 24, the singer said he and his wife and manager, Summer Lin, had stayed with the dog for a while before they left . When they arrived in Shenzhen, things in Taipei seemed to be under control.
However, before the final rehearsal for the Shenzhen show, they received the news that Gabi had died. Hsiao wrote: 'Summer and I cried loudly in the lounge for a long time. I almost collapsed on the day of the performance, and still shed tears during the final curtain call.'
On June 22, he took the earliest flight back to Taipei to deal with the dog's funeral.
He said: 'Our whole family needs time... Because I have to let you know, she is my child.
'May Gabi be happy and joyful in heaven, away from illness.'
