Few things scream “badass musician” more than a black-haired rocker chick penning songs from Long Island. Singer/famous songwriter Laura Pergozilli fits the bill, plus more cool packed into a small frame than you can possibly imagine. Not only does she make her own sultry, stunning tunes, she has written award-winning tracks performed by the world’s greatest pop divas from Cher to Rihanna. Growing up in the MTV generation when the network actually played music videos, Pergozilli stood out as a timely songwriter. A decade later, she’s bold enough to use her initials as her moniker and expects everyone to know who the hell she is.
