Malta was a Swedish pop duo. It was a duo consisting of Claes af Geijerstam and Göran Fristorp. In 1973, they had to change their band name to Nova in order to perform at the Eurovision Song Contest 1973 due to potential confusion with the country Malta. They performed the song "You're Summer" in Luxembourg, which achieved 5th place in the contest, with 94 points.[1]
