Lisa Bella Donna Live Performance At The Brooklyn Synth Expo

This video captures a live improvisation by synthesist Lisa Bella Donna, at the 2019 Brooklyn Synth Expo. We shared an excerpt of the performance last week and people asked for more, so we touched base with her and got the OK to share the full performance. Bella Donna’s performance features a streamlined setup of a Moog Matriarch synthesizer and effects pedals from Earthquaker Devices. But the Sonic Sorceress coaxes a huge range of sounds and moods from her rig, from ambient textures, to prog leads, to primal wails. Bella Donna recently wrapped up a tour of Japan with Boris and has two new albums out on Bandcamp (). Music copyright Lisa Bella Donna and used by permission.
