Today Malta’s biggest pop star Ira Losco is releasing her single “Walk On Water” together with Warner Music Sweden. The song is written by a well known Swedish songwriter team and is one of the favourites to win Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm. Ira’s single has already gained great attention in the social medias and the music video for “Walk On Water” has passed more than one million views on YouTube. The team behind this powerful song, beside the artist herself, consists of Swedish Melodifestivalen star Molly Pettersson Hammar, songwriter Lisa Desmond and producer duo Tim Larsson and Tobias Lundgren. Tim and Tobias were behind this year’s breakthrough success Boris René with the hit song “Put Your Love On Me” in the Swedish selections for ESC. They’re also known for their hits with Celine Dion and Susan Boyle, to mention a couple.

“Ira is an exceptional singer, and we think this is a very strong song not only for Eurovision but also for commercial release. We look forward to working with her over the next months, and of course to her visiting Stockholm for Eurovision itself,” said Robert Skowronski, A&R and Product Manager at Warner Music Sweden.

With a career spanning over 15 years and more than 20 Music Awards, Ira Losco is one of the biggest names in Malta’s music industry. Previously Ira has been opening concerts for Sir Elton John and performed alongside Akon, Maroon 5, Enrique Iglesias, Ronan Keating, Katie Melua, Tokio Hotel and others. Ira is also no stranger to Eurovision. She was 12 points of winning the Eurovision Song Contest in Tallinn in 2002. With four albums behind her, she is now back to fight for the winning spot in Stockholm. Ira will perform in the first Eurovision semi-final on May 10th.
