Writers: Composer: Renato Briffa Lyrics: Rita Pace
Your favourite international singer and song?: Singer Bruno Mars and I love all of his songs.
Your favourite local singer and song?: Ira Losco and her song Love you long time
How long have you been involved in music?: At a young age I used to play the Piano but at around nine years old I started singing lessons.
What are your goals in music ? : To have a career and practise to be as good as I can get.
Do you have a standard routine before performing?: Not really, I just try to stay as calm as I can.
Name another Malta Hit Finalist you admire?: Anna Azzoppardi. I love her soul voice and feel.
What’s your opinion regarding the music industry in Malta? : There are a lot of talented singers but since we do not have many outreach for people to study Music full-time, it sometimes lacks in professionalism.
Do you believe in collaborations? Who would you duet with?: I do believe that through collaborations one learns from the other. It would be a great honour to perform with a foreign celebrity and also a big dream of mine.
How would you celebrate if you win Malta Hit 2014?: I don’t like to plan these things but I would probably be stunned.
Your Message to Music News Malta followers?: I hope you like my song and I hope you’ll enjoy this year’s Malta Hit Song Festival!
