Bella Donna Fair

About Me

What's in a name? Bella Donna is Italian for "beautiful lady."

Bella Donna Fair (BDF) was founded by songstress Jennifer Grassman for the purpose of promoting female musicians. While as yet BDF is only a myspace page, Grassman hopes that it will one day evolve to become a networking resource and valuable marketing asset for independent women in music. Grassman also hopes to eventually be able to organize BDF showcases and concert series. Stay tuned!
