Ira Losco’s German tour climaxed with a great show in Metzigen last weekend where she pumped a 30-minute set that rocked an audience of over 20,000. This concert, which was headlined by Melanie C, together with German chart toppers US5, Joanna Zimmer and Kate Hall, brought to an end a highly successful live tour that kicked off in June.

“This was the perfect way to end the tour. My band and I gave it all we had and the crowd just went wild! After the show we met with Melanie C and her band and partied with them till the early hours of the morning, that was cool!” said an enthusiastic Miss Losco.

Playing main support act to international stars like Elton John, Katie Melua, Simple Minds, Ronan Keating, Mark Owen (Take That) and Melanie C, this is the first time that a local artist together with an all Maltese band has played 22 events to audiences of 2,500 to 80,000.

“Ira Losco has developed into a great artist and it is encouraging to see the positive reaction of the crowds with various sections singing along to the songs. It is a gratifying reward for all the hard work and sacrifices made. We can now look forward to next year when she will be releasing her album in Germany. The indications show that she will have bigger and better gigs that will take her to the next level,” concluded Paul Zammit Cutajar.

At present, Ira Losco is putting the final touches to her second album that will be released on 16 November at a press/launch party in Axis, Paceville.
