Nicole Hammett is a new name to us here at ESC Covers. But she is certainly a young singer from Malta to look out for. She can comfortably sing and merge the styles of classical and opera/soprano with pop and ballads and rock/pop music with outstanding vocals and technique.
Her first music video was for the release for her song called Start Over and it reached 345,000 views in just a week when first released. The single went all the way to number one in the Bay Radio charts in Malta and stayed there for three weeks and eventually it was a top ten seller for the whole year of 2017.
Nicole has great ambitions to be not only a pop star but also to perform in musical theatre. I am sure she will achieve a lot of her goals and maybe one day we will see her on the Eurovision stage also.
Let us take a look at an example of Nicole’s singing below. First we see her perform her hit single Start Over. Next we see her sing Ti Siento (by Matia Bazar) and MacArthur Park (originally by Richard Harris but this version more like the Donna Summer dance version with some operatic vocals). You can see the official video for Start Over at this link https://www.facebook.com/nicolehammettpopsopranosinger.official/videos/1424683684263647/
