Artist Spotlight: Cory Pesaturo

Hey everyone!

Kicking off your Tuesday with another edition of Artist Spotlight! This week for you guys, we're checking out a different kind of flavor as I present to you today an accordion player based out of Cumberland, Rhode Island named Cory Pesaturo. Normally, I don't typically cover this genre of music too often here on the blog, but I thought I'd give his music a try after hearing him make a guest appearance on the radio last week, and something inside of me made me want to hear more of his music. His music evokes a feel of smooth jazz with his rhythms conjuring up melodic undertones that make you feel like you're in a gondola cruising the canals of Italy with warm sounds greeting you as you glide on the waterfront. Now, some people might not think of the accordion as a hip, cool instrument to play, but Cory adds a dynamic element that makes you want to continue listening and feel inspired by all the talents that he has to offer you. In just a short amount of time, Cory has captured the attention of music lovers from all over the world, and just recently won the 2011 Primus Ikaalinen World Championship and the Coupe Mondiale World Digital Accordion Championship in Auckland, New Zealand and became the first American champion in that category in over 25 years. Cory has an amazing, unique talent to share with everyone and he exudes confidence and charisma that will carry him a long way in the music business. Some recommended tracks for you to check out include "Under Paris Skies" and 'What is This Thing Called Love".
