During the 22nd November performance Winter Moods will also bid farewell to drummer James Vella, who has been with the band for over 13 years.

“We are looking forward to getting on stage again, however it will be an emotional performance as it will be the last one with James. It will be sad to say goodbye to a brother,” said Ivan.

On the night the band will also introduce the new drummer, Gerald Busuttil.
