Winter Moods have confirmed their position as Malta’s top rock band when they entertained a crowd of over 7500 at the Valletta Waterfront on Wednesday night. The band played through their string of hits in a two hour show that had the audience singing along through every tune.

The show kicked off at 9:30pm with Fake Love, followed by All The Time In The World, Adrenaline and a string of hits including Everyday Song, Come To You, Sarah, Crazy Moon, Moonshine, and the show’s outstanding finale with Marigold. During one of the most intimate moments of the performance, when Ivan Grech and Melvin Caruana were performing on the catwalk, George Curmi “ il-Puse accompanied the duo on the violin in an outstanding rendition of the classic rock song Dust In The Wind and the band’s own Friends.
Winter Moods made music history with the highest number of tickets ever sold for a performance by a local act.
Ivan Grech said, œWe were amazed by the turn out and the feedback. The people’s support made it all worthwhile. We had a fantastic time on stage, the crowd’s response to our songs carried us through our set seamlessly. It was an emotional experience and a dream come through for the band. We will carry this concert in our hearts for years and years to come.
Winter Moods concert was the Vodafone Music Jam event of this year, organized by NnG Promotions. The concert was also supported by Hamilton Travel, MSC Crociere, Coca Cola, Heineken, Jack Daniels, MTA, Kia, HSBC, Band Aid Music, and Hard Rock Cafe. The light show was provided by Nexol Lighting.

Hi, I am in a death/heavy metal band but after visiting Malta and watching your band. I realised that the music I am into is just a waste of time. I now realise how great is your music and your band made me love slow and melodic rock. thanks for the music you really is Malta’s greatest rock band. I hope you’ll come to the UK and play your great music |

What a really fantastic and unforgettable concert! I really enjoyed it all and was really pleased to hear also some of the older songs! For me the cherry on the cake was ‘Marigold’…honestly, when the first notes were played I felt a shiver down my spine and had tears in my eyes, something that only happened once to me in years and years of attending concerts, and that was when I saw Marillion play ‘Easter’ in Florence last year! Thanks for this emotion which will live on in me for years to come! God bless you all! Prosit tassew and I wish you all the very best of luck in whatever you do! |

Great show yesterday. It must have been great for you Ivan with the crowd in front of you and our beloved Senglea in the background. Me and my family were accompanied by clients from the UK and USA on our boat. They had only praise for the Band and the venue. Good luck for the future. |

Yesterday’s concert was truly brilliant and awesome. It was a unique experience for all music lovers and created true and magical emotions for the heart. Crazy Moon was played so brilliantly and the last song Marigold certainly brought the curtain down to an unforgettable concert. Marigold means so much to me and a special friend. WinterMoods, you truly deserve the success you had yesterday and it was such a lovely gift which you shared with all your fans. Take care and continue giving us more of your music. Thanks and I’m really proud of you and also that I’m Maltese. |

Hi guys, Yesterday’s concert was massive. It will be an unforgettable evening. The performance you all gave and the sound was excellent. Keep up the good work, we are always after you and we appreciate that you treat us as your family. You deserved that good turnout. We loved the songs you chose to play. At last we burst into tears as you played Marigold. May you all have what you wish for. |

The Boys did it again !!!! New Maltese record in locally brewn concert attandance. It is simply described as a magical moment in the course of time when the band appeared on stage and started its set with Fake Love, followed by other 18 pieces. All the energy put in this event left reslts no one has ever immagined . No words can describe the vibe that rushed through the vains during the whole performance. Prosit and thanks for this memorable Concert. |

Winter Moods you gave us goose bumps and treated us like one big family, all in support of one another.but mostly proud to be Maltese. On a warm, balmy night ; a quarter moon shimmering over still waters of Grand Harbour , the crisp, clear sound bites cut through the air like a knife . Crazy Moon and Marigold made me forget every day life as I floated to the mix of Ivan’s voice and Steve’s solid lead . |
