How important is music to you/why: For me music is an essential part of my life… It is a way in which I can express myself like any other kind of art. Also at the moment I’m reading for a degree in Music so it’s kind of what I do :P I thank God for this incredible gift that he gave me to share with others.

Can you share with us something curious/funny which happened to you when performing: I don’t think it is funny but anyway :P I was in a festival and had to change my outfits since I had 2 songs.. During my second performance I realized that I didn’t change my shoes and it didn’t match with my outfit at all :P

From the current Konkors Kanzunetta Indipendenza Festival 2015 finalists, who would you choose to duet with/why: Well… this is a bit difficult as I believe that everyone has its own potential.. but if I had to choose I surely would choose to sing with Michela Dalli…. Not only she is a very down to earth, humble and nice girl but she also has that angelic voice which I really love… And also I think we like the same type of genres in music

A typical weekday for you from morning to night: In Winter: usually I go to University in the morning and if I don’t have any singing lessons or any other stuff I like to stay in the library. And maybe afterwards my friends and I like to hangout a bit.
In Summer: Every day is different but I like to go to the beach and hangout with my friends

How do you like to spend your weekends: In Winter I like to stay home cosy watching a DVD… In Summer I like to spend it with my friends and family

Do you think Malta should send a Konkors Kanzunetta Indipendenza Festival winner to represent Malta at Eurovision one year and why/why not: If the singer has the potential to represent Malta why not? But to be completely honest I still like the traditional song contest

Your musical influences: I have to say Andrew Lloyd Webber, Joseph Calleja and Andrea Bocelli
Your inspiration in life: I have to say my Mum.. I wish when I grow up to be just like her… or similar :P

A message to the our readers?: Firstly Thanks for all the support that you give to us singers… and secondly if you have a dream go and catch it… if you believe it you will achieve it 
