Cinnamon War is the winner of this year’s edition of Hard Rock Rising.

Earlier this year, Hard Rock Cafe called on emerging local talent to rock out for the opportunity to take the stage in Barcelona with Hard Rock Rising, one of the world’s largest and most far-reaching battle of the bands competitions.

One of the world’s largest battle of the bands

During the past month Malta hosted a series of live battle events where undiscovered talent vied for the top spot to represent Malta at the global battle in Barcelona this summer.

The band is made up of Michael Portelli on vocals, Robert Tabone Valletta on guitar, Samuel Attard on drums and Andre Zammit on bass.

Hard Rock Rising Barcelona takes place on July 24 and 25 in front of 60,000 fans, featuring a line-up of international talent performing against the backdrop of the beach at El Forum.
