Lisa Bella Donna
Lisa Bella Donna is an American musician and composer known for her use of modular synthesizers and musique concrète  compositions.

Career
Bella Donna released her first solo work in 1994. In 2019, she released 10 full-length albums, which she has described as an "instant composition" approach to reflect the nature of the live performances. In 2019, she also released a four-way split with Boris, Relaxer, and Crypt City, with a brief tour in Japan. By mid-2021, she had released 25 albums. According to Dave Segal of The Stranger, "her Bandcamp is full of outstanding releases", referring to her collection of works released on Bandcamp, and her "arsenal includes some of the most glorious-sounding instruments in the electronic-music spectrum: ARP 2600, ARP String Ensemble, Moog One, and Moog Modular System." 

Bella Donna is one of the featured artists interviewed for the 2020 book PATCH & TWEAK with Moog by Kim Bjørn. She is a Moog Music representative, was featured in a 2019 promotional video for the Matriarch synthesizer, and has demonstrated Moog instruments in a 2019 video for Reverb.  

Her home recording studio, Appalachian Recording, is based in the Appalachians.
