They are a seasoned and seasonal duo, as they have been in the industry for many years and only do selective gigs around town.

Calling themselves the “Retro Buddies”, they are currently performing at the Chorus By The Quay at the Straits Quay Retail Marina in Tanjung Tokong.

The entertaining duo is made up of silky voiced Elton Collins and evergreen singer and emcee, Gilbert Khoo.

The band will take you down memory lane with numbers from Phil Collins, Nat King Cole, George Benson, Lionel Richie, Prince, Michael Jackson, Barry Manilow, Bee Gees, Beatles, Richard Marx, Paul Young, Peobo Bryson and other evergreen male singers.

Al-Fresco setting

Collins is also a wizard on the keyboards and tricks all of his renditions with his own spin.

“I would attribute my musical experience to my early days performing with full bans all over the globe. It was great fun while it lasted,” added Collins.

Meanwhile, Khoo who is a self taught singer is always looking and learning new songs. 

“Music is my passion and my love for music from the eighties  nineties and also new numbers suit my voice,” he added.

Music lovers can catch their performances every Wednesdays from 8pm onwards.

Meanwhile, the restaurant offers indoor and al-fresco dining options with a wide variety of international and Western cuisine to suit your palate.
