Her voice, described by many, as memorable, powerful, with a breathtaking breaking point all wrapped in one. She loves a wide range of genres from pop, country to soul.

From an unknown talent, she exploded on the X-Factor stage, leaving the judges speechless, to winning the final, as if that is the only thing she was born to do. Previously, she won the Music Talent League in Lithuania, was a finalist in the ‘Baltic Voices’ competition and attended ‘Ultimate Artist’ in the artist development programme in Hertfordshire London, where she also worked with Rhianna’s producer.

Michela describes herself as “an average teenager but when I start singing it’s as if my voice takes over my entire being. Aretha Franklin once said that you sing soul with your whole body. I know exactly what she means.”

Michela who is currently signed to Sony Music won the right to represent Malta in the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest 2019 in Tel Aviv by winning the X-Factor contest.
