Performing
Saturday, June 5Pezzettino is Margaret Stutt, a Milwaukee based indie-folk accordion, piano singer/songwriter. Sophomore album
Lion, was released in April 2009 and she has since gained momentum on the Milwaukee music scene, being nominated in early 2010 as Best New Artist by 88Nine Music Awards. Margaret was trained on classical piano at the local convent until age 12, when she quit because she didn't like the pressure of competition. She has a BA in Art History and MA in Oriental Medicine. At age 25 she called off an engagement, joined a band, and taught herself how to play her father's accordion. 'The songs just began pouring out, it was like opening a flood gate.' Less than six months later, she released her first album and began touring as a solo artist. 'Pezzettino' translates to 'little piece' or 'little square' in Italian, and depending on how strict copyright laws are, it may or may not be a reference to the children's illustration book by Leo Lionni.
