Lyndsay Pace, the Maltese 18-year old singer, performer & song-writer from the locality of Swieqi, Ibragg and born on the 12th March 1990 is known to be such an outstanding, confident and outgoing teenager who takes great interest in anything that has to do with the arts of music. At the moment, Lyndsay’s attending Sixth Form and is currently studying and concentrating on the profession of communications, television aswell as the media world.
Lyndsay’s passion for music had always been in her heart since she was a little child and thus she always carried the natural abilities in having such good presence and personality on stage. She’s that type of person who always takes a challenge, speaks her mind and is not afraid to be her true self. Generally speaking, she began her singing career at a tender age of 10 years old were she had taken vocal lessons from many professional teachers and is currently taking Speech Level Training from Heather Baker at the Mediterranean Vocal Studio. Her main genre mostly includes commercial sounds like pop, rock and ballads but she tries to be as versatile and as flexible as possible in her style to try and capture the whole plot of the audience. Her influences include some of the famous and top artists such as Madonna, Kelly Clarkson, Anastacia, Robbie Williams and Mika.
In the past few years or so, Lyndsay has taken part in several music activities were she managed to show off her good qualities and achieve positive results. In fact, she took part in a variety of local festivals, T.V. programmes such as “Talent Zone” and “Ma’ Gaffiero” 2006 were she won 1st place amongst the other 20 participants in the category, The Baystreet Talent Competition “Star To Be” 2006 were she won 1st place and was also rewarded as the Overall Winner with many grand prizes, the popular challenge of “L-Isfida” 2006, hosted by Claudette Pace were she managed to make it through with the finalists from around a 100 applicants, The XFM Competition “Virtual Rockstar” 2007 were she had placed 4th amongst the 20 finalists and also she had been invited for a number of times to be present on T.V. aswell as radio stations in order to enhance promotion and plenty of exposure.
Having said that, Lyndsay also took the “Starter Pack” course during the summer holidays, organized by Malta’s leading media crew, Where’s Everybody were she was greatly thought to strengthen and improve her talents. During her time there, she had the opportunity to work on a brand new single and music video with the help of a high-skilled team. The song, entitled as “The Truth In Me”, written by Lyndsay herself and music by Mro. Paul Abela which relates a story about a devastating break-up or better understood as a complete failed romance had also been a stepping-stone of success for her since she had made it through with the first 35 songs chosen from 228 other songs in the “Malta Song For Europe 2006”, being that it was her first time to enter in this massive competition.
In early 2007, Lyndsay was chosen to be part of the “Taking Gender Equality to Local Communities” Project in which Mro. Paul Abela had composed the music & Joe Julian Farrugia had written the lyrics of all the songs, including Lyndsay’s Maltese single “Toqghodx Lura” and the theme song “Different and Equal” which is sung by all the established local singers involved. Basically, this Project aims to create awareness among ordinary citizens about the difficulties and limitations that gender roles and stereotypes create in everyday activities.
Amongst some of her individual songs, Lyndsay had released her new pop ballad track known as "Say Goodbye", again written by Lyndsay herself and music by Mro. Paul Abela in early December 2007 which talks about the start of something new and relates mostly to those people who are in search for everlasting happiness in their lives. Eventually, she started off a new year in a fresh vibe as she had released yet another new rock-pop bonus single entitled as "Wishing Well" (lyrics by Rita Pace, arrangements & melody by Renato Briffa and music by Andrew Zammit) on the 1st January 2008 during a local T.V. programme "Move It: New Year's Day Special". Just like her personality, the song is described to be rather catchy, energetic and with an edge as it talks about the capture of that special someone aswell as the priority of giving the best wishes in life.
Having also had the role as a lead singer in an amatuer rock band for almost a year at the very start of her music career, Lyndsay settled down as a solo artist for a long period of time until recently in the year 2008 as she had been selected to be part of Malta's first and ultimate girl band "Vieve" in conjunction with Richard Rogers of Silverscope music and XFM who are thrilled to announce this fresh and exciting project. The 4 girl band members, hand picked for this once in a lifetime opportunity are Lyndsay Pace herself, Marilena Gauci, Marilyn Mifsud and Francesca Galea. Speaking in their first ever interview during the Big Drive Home with Jay and Lee, the girls were utterly thrilled at being given the chance to do what most teenage girls only dream of. Moreoever, Vieve’s first performance was held at the Néstle Fitness Virtual Model event being held at the Corinthia San Gorg on 28th March, followed up by their debut single release "Simple Pop" on XFM. Gigs in London and other European venues are already lined up for early Summer, accompanied by the release of their second single. With a host of song writing talent behind them, known for penning songs for artists such as Rod Stewart, Ringo Starr, Mel C, S-Club 7 and Placebo the future looks good for Malta's very own "Vieve"!
Moreover, Lyndsay continuously tries her best to bring out the right elements towards the music industry and is also working on some new songs to gain more success and popularity in the nearby future.

"Music has always been my ultimate passion. In fact, my talent had been recognized at a very tender age. This is when I decided to choose this path and follow my instincts for the rest of my life.
Growing up, I started taking vocal lessons to improve and strengthen my voice throughout these past years. Several experiences and different opportunities had taught me very well into the music way of life as I attracted more and more people’s attention to who I really am as a person. I was always that outgoing and confident girl who took great interest in anything that had to do with music. By this, I truly believe that singing is just something I was born to do since I deeply feel music in my heart and take this career as a serious project. Also, my personal background became the main motivation that drove my song writing as I started to express myself emotionally.
At the moment, I am currently concentrating hard on my studies and examinations as I would like to continue working on this music career mostly including communications, television and media.
Above all, I hope that my talent carries the right elements to achieve my aim to a successful future in the music industry as regards the local area, or better yet, the international one."
Hi young artist Lyndsy, thank you for having accepted the friendship. I have listened to your sweet voice, good... compliments! I send a warm regard. Conrad
