Recently ESC Covers reported about the young and talented singer, Nicole Hammett, from Malta. Now she is having more success that we wanted to tell you about. Nicole has just won the Grand Prix with the highest marks from all contestants in a festival by Diamond Productions.

Nicole sang the operatic aria Sempre Libera from La Traviata by Verdi. She has a unique voice where she can adapt from operatic to rock and to pop. Nicole is thankful to her vocal coaches Danica Muscat (who is one of the 2018 Malta Song For Europe finalists again), Joshua De Cadeneux and Joseph Chircop.

In addition to the success with the Grand Prix, Nicole has advanced to the semi-final stage of The Entertainers – Singing Challenge on Net tv in Malta. She performed Phantom Of The Opera.

Malta has a habit of producing talented singers and Bradley DeBono is a young singer to look out for. He is 15 years old and is currently attending the The Voice Lab Malta and is being coached by Claudia Magrin, who is the mother Christina Magrin (2016 JESC Malta).

Bradley has already had much success in competitions and festivals in Malta and internationally. He won the Melodija Magika with the song Paġna Ġdida (New page) composed by Emil Calleja Bayliss (who wrote the Malta 2017 JESC song Dawra Tond for Gianluca Cilia) and Marco Debono. He has also performed at shows in Bulgaria, Lithuania, Italy, Switzerland, Slovenia and FYR Macedonia. In Switzerland he was a participant in Star Voices and performed the song Bikja Fis-smewwiet (Cry in Heaven) composed by Rita Pace and Kaya Pricilla Psaila. In Lithuania he performed two songs You Raise Me Up (Josh Groban) and Un Amore Cosi Grande (Il Volo).

Bradley is continuing to develop as a singer and I am sure we will see a lot more of him in the future. He has received coaching lessons and master classes from respected judge Luca Pitteri (from Italian tv shows such as Amici and Io Canto). He is also taking part in the Don’t Stop Me Now show on Net tv in Malta. You can follow Bradley at https://www.facebook.com/bradleydebonosinger/
