The New Victorians have just released a new music video for their latest single, Second to None. The song will feature in their original music theatre experience Público, a work they have composed and directed, which will be performed at Teatru Manoel at the end of the month. The video was produced and directed by V Squared Media and was filmed entirely within Teatru Manoel. It gives audiences a preview of the show whilst letting them into areas of the building that they may

High is the latest single from Ira Losco, the 7th to be lifted off her 2018 double-album No Sinner No Saint. The song is accompanied by a video that sends out a very strong message. Once again, Ira turned to award-winning director Steven Levi and Matthew Muscat Drago (D.O.P.) to capture the essence of the song and translate it into an engaging visual production. Produced and mixed by Howard Keith at Jagged House Studios, High speaks about the minorities in society that endur

Having spent a busy time promoting her album Redemption abroad, as well as taking part in various local music productions, including the musical Il-Hanina Maddalena, Amber is back with a brand new song. Alive is one of several new tracks the charismatic artist has been working on for her new album, which is scheduled for release later this year. The new album will see her collaborating with different producers, each working to highlight Amber's particular timbre and style as

They've been away from the public eye for a while, but that doesn't mean The Crowns haven't been busy. In fact, the band has just released a brand new single. Titled Calling my name, the song retains the band's pop-rock timbre and has been receiving positive feedback from the band's fans.

Known for her incredible energy and charisma on stage Singer/Song writer Ira Losco has announced her summer concert “Women in Music.” The concert is happening on the 18th August 2018 at The Teatru Rjal in Valletta and is part of the V18 events which are planned for this summer. Ira Losco’s most recent concert was held last Christmas at The Hilton and featured guests. This time “Women in Music” is being held in the gorgeous capital city with the night stars as a backdrop. Th

Good music being shared for a great cause! That's always been the aim of Simon's Pub Music Festival, and not only is the popular festival back, but it's also turning 20! To celebrating this milestone, the team behind Simon’s Pub Music Festival has been working hard to put on a bigger and better edition. Perhaps one of the most special aspects about this festival is that the line-up on offer doesn't just present established acts but also allows space for upcoming artists; a su

Siblings Bettina and Philippa, better known in local music circles as The New Victorians, have just released a brand new single. Comeback is the first single off their upcoming concept Silence EP. Bringing together an element of cinematic storytelling and indie electronic music, the three-song EP will take the form of a short film, split into three music videos. The video trilogy was shot in the UK earlier this year, charting the transition from intimate silence to uncomfort

One In A Million is the latest single from Ira Losco. The song, produced and mixed by Howard Keith at Jagged House Studios, is lifted off her upcoming double album. It was first performed exclusively at her sold out concert last December. The accompanying music video, directed by Matthew Muscat Drago and featuring YouTube star Stella Cini, was shot over two days at The Ramla Bay Resort and features a young couple’s erratic love story, with Ira posing as an outside force at ti

"20 years ago, Nirvana and I joked about how old we would be during Teatru Unplugged 20". So reads the introduction in this year's concert programme from Jonathan Shaw who, along with the deeply-missed Nirvana Azzopardi had brought this unlikely idea to fruition two decades ago. They may only have been joking about there being a Teatru Unplugged 20 at the time, but here I am, putting pen to paper and jotting a few words precisely about the show's 20th anniversary edition. It

With a forty-five-year career behind him, William Mangion is certainly no newcomer to the Maltese music scene. His name will probably forever be linked to his 1993 song This Time, which placed 8th in that year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Ireland, but there’s more to this veteran artist than that. He’s had his taste of success as the voice of top local act Getting Closer and the UK band Still Waters, further to which he has maintained a steady solo career thanks to his entert

They've enjoyed multiple chart successes in the past with previous singles Something Real and Can't Divide Us, and now, London-based vocal House duo Monroe, namely Katie Jones and Kelly Schembri are back with an irresistibly cool dancefloor tune that looks set to notch up even more chart success. Released globally on October 27, the latest single from Monroe, Wasted tears has been signed to Tommy Boy Records in North America, Canada & Mexico. The legendary US label is also ho

With his band Winter Moods currently on a break, frontman Ivan Grech, clearly unable to resist the itch to get back on stage, got together with a band of musicians to put on a solo concert; hardly surprising really, given the success of his first such venture last year. Of particular note this year, having the production costs of the concert covered by partners and sponsors made it possible for all revenue from ticket sales and other donations collected on the night to be pas

OMG is the latest single from Ira Losco, the 4th single lifted off her eagerly-anticipated new album, which is scheduled for released later this year. The upbeat number, which features local Youtube hiphop sensation Shyli, is a pop tune about heartbreak and revenge and follows hot on the heels of last March's We Are The Soldiers, contrasting sharply with the latter's relatively deeper tone. Peppered with infectious pop and a whole lot of sass, the new single has all the makin

Having wowed local audiences with her interpretation of the song Kewkba during this year's Malta Eurovision Song Contest, there is no doubt that Janice Mangion was one of the shining stars that stood out above the rest during that same festival. Apart from working on new material, as artists always are, the young singer will soon be heading for Eastern Europe, where she will be performing at the biggest international music competition in that region. The Slaviansky Bazaar in

A regular and much-anticipated event on the local live music calendar, Simon’s Pub Music Festival is back this month for its 19th consecutive edition. This year, the event kicks off on Friday. April 28, boasting a lien-up of no fewer than 20 acts, the larger part of which are established names, but do keep an eye out for the lesser-known acts, as there are always pleasant surprises to be had when least expected. The festival comes to an end on Sunday night and, as in previous

She was Malta's representative at the 2015 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest, but since then, Amber has done much by way of furthering her musical career. To begin with, her post-Eurovision single releases clearly outlined that she had moved on from Warrior; musically at least, as her fighting spirit remained intact. In what some considered a bold leap (it was!) to explore fresh sounds and a new direction, Amber's album Redemption underlined her declared intention to tak

Further to the release of their debut EP Impulse last year, Jack's Fusion have just released a new single. Run is the second sngle off the EP, and the band's third since their recording debut around 18 months ago. The song is also the band's second-ever composition and is accomapnied by a music video. Jack's Fusion will be performing several key gigs in the coming months, starting with an appearance at this year's Rock The South festival, which kicks off on Friday, April 21.

The Crowns' mark on 2016 came by way of their two radio singles, namely Mary Jane and Dreams, both of which had been written the previous year. The band is now back with a brand new single that also heralds some changes in the band's camp. To begin with the song clearly suggests that there has been some delving into new sounds and experimenting with styles. Titled Smoke and Mirrors, the song is a more groove-based number compared to past singles; its soulful melody line and i

Following her new single's premiere at this year's Malta Eurovision Song Contest finals, Ira Losco has just launched the music video for her latest release, We Are The Soldiers. The power ballad, which will feature in the artist's upcoming album, marks her return after an 8-month hiatus. We Are The Soldiers is Ira's first single release since her participation at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm, where she placed 1st in the Jury vote and 3rd overall in the Semi-F

He's a familiar face on the local music circuit, both as a solo artist or as part of the band Firelight, whose song Coming Home was Malta's entry at the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest in Denmark. Further to releasing his summer 2016 single Burning, last November Richard Edwards also released the acoustic ballad You, which made the final 16 in the 2017 edition of the Malta Eurovision Song Contest. The song didn't win, but it received so much positive feedback it has now been re-
