Mdina (The Walled City) Music: Steve Hackett, Watercolor: Frank Grabowski

Iconic guitarist Steve Hackett, releases his acoustic album Under A Mediterranean Sky on 22nd January 2021. Under A Mediterranean Sky is Steve Hackett’s first acoustic solo album since Tribute in 2008 and takes inspiration from Steve’s extensive travels around the Mediterranean with his wife Jo. Steve comments: “At the centre of the Mediterranean, Malta has always been a crossroads, a battle ground and a cultural melting pot. Both it’s turmoil and its beauty are held within the ramparts of its walled city, Mdina, and celebrated in this track.” For the painter Frank Grabowski, Malta is currently still a place of longing. Inspired by the music of his friend, he visualized the music in three watercolors. Enjoy the wonderful music and the impressive city of Mdina. For more information:
