Get To Know Deborah C (MESC)

Deborah C is an artist who has caused a stir in the local music industry after winning a TV singing contest by a landslide, and has attracted the attention of several heavyweights in the music industry. Deborah C is no stranger to the Malta Eurovision Song Contest, having participated multiple times over the years. But will this year be her year?!

We talked to Deborah C to get to know her a little better!

Deborah its great to be interviewing you, firstly can you tell us what does your song mean to you or mean in general?

I believe ‘Turn It Up’ is a potential song... It has a universal appeal and gives people an infectious energy. Its hook is memorable! Christian Schneider, Aidan O’ Connor, Sarah Biglert and Erik Gronwall (composers/authors) shared all their ideas on music, style and lyrics to come up with a great song. The message behind this song is to live to the maximum and give everything 100% whether it’s a relationship or a passion. We turn up the music to dance, to celebrate, to love. Life is too short so give it the best shot you can!
