She is the founder of The Puppini Sisters, a radio presenter on Shoreditch Radio, an orchestra conductor and the lead singer of Marcella and The Forget Me Nots. ==Biography== Marcella Puppini started playing the piano at age 5, and hoped to become an opera singer. At the age of 18, having completed her A levels in Classics (Ancient Greek, Latin, Italian Literature and Art History), Puppini moved to London to study at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. Having graduated in fashion, Puppini went on to become Accessories Production Manager at Vivienne Westwood Studios, but kept her side career as a singer in clubs all around London. Her first band was called Dead Sex Kitten. Puppini guested on Rich B’s song "Revolution".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=INTERVIEW: London DJ and Producer, Rich B talks to JemmOne’s Phil Marriott! )〕 She also performed in her own name in the Jazz and Cabaret scene both in the UK and in Italy. In 1999, she left the fashion world and embarked on a degree course at Trinity College of Music, where she graduated in Jazz Performance and Composition. In 2004, Puppini created a new group called the Puppini Sisters: a close-harmony trio inspired by the sister groups of the ‘30s and ‘40s. The Puppini Sisters debut album, ''Betcha Bottom Dollar'' (UCJ, 2006), was awarded a Gold disc in the UK.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Look back, go ahead - )〕 Puppini became involved in the alternative performance art scene.
