Kurt told us "As soon as Eurovision is over i'm flying to Sweden, we have a couple of songs we are working on. We will make also a duet with Ell, the Azerbaijan winner last year. I'm really looking forward to it."

At his press conference Kurt was asked about his background and how he went from singing in pubs to build his career to where it is today.

As time went by I went to live in London, worked with Ryanair and sang in pubs and clubs, that was when I realised what I wanted to do with my life. I was a backing vocalist on Maltese TV, then entered the Eurovision national selection before and I finished 12th and then 3rd before winning t Kurt is joined by two male electric guitar players, a female drummer, a DJ/dancer who is stood behind some decks, and Amber providing extra backing vocals.
