A brand new Christmas song has been launched in Malta by various singers entitled Kull m’hemm Bżonn. It is an upbeat song with a seasonal message composed by Dario Bezzina and Cliff Casha.

The talented singers taking part are Eliana Gomez Blanco, Sebastian Calleja, Nicole Hammett, Timea Farr, Martina Fenech and Bradley Debono. They all do a wonderful job.

ESC Covers are familiar with some of the singers above such as Nicole, who has an amazing voice and can adapt to opera, pop and rock styles so easily. Eliana took part in the Malta Junior Eurovision national selection this year and has great jazz and soulful voice. Bradley, we know from some great performances. Sebastian has taken part in several festivals and success in competitions. We look forward to hearing more about Timea and Martina.
