They do have singer entertainers at certain clubs, restaurants and hotels. It wouldn't be hard to get work legally. No. The restaurant, club or hotel manager usually arranges the contracts. I don't think you will find full time jobs as this only part-time but I heard the pay was great.

My partner used to work as a fulltime band entertainer. Though the pay is good, over the years, it became difficult to get visa, some agency will rip you off unreasonably. So be careful!

Try looking for a position in a five star hotels cause you'll never get wrong.
