Misstress Barbara Reunites with The Lodge

Misstress Barbara, known as Italian-born/Montreal raised international DJ/pop artist has recently released her sophomore album "Many Shades Of Grey" (MapleMusic Records) on April 12th, 2012. The new album was mastered at The Lodge by Emily Lazar and her team at The Lodge and follows up 2009's Juno nominated album "I'm No Human" (also mastered by The Lodge).  

Barbara Bonfiglio started out on drums at the age of 12 and by the time she was 20 she was working as a DJ in the Montreal club circuit, in addition to sharing engineering duties. Her interest and talent in production and DJ-ing eventually led to an incredible career as an internationally renowned DJ selling out shows all over the globe alongside some of the top DJ's of the last decade.

By 2009, Misstress Barbara decided to step away from the turntables and release her first solo album titled “I’m No Human" featuring much loved musicians like Sam Roberts and collaborations with Bjorn Yttling (of Peter, Bjorn & John) & Brazillian Girls.  The album was nominated for a Juno in 2010 for Best Dance Recording Of The year and launched Bonfiglio's solo career as a dance/electronic artist.

Produced and mixed entirely by Misstress Barbara, "Many Shades Of Grey" showcases Bonfiglio's intricate production style.  In a recent statement, Bonfiglio said, "I'm proud of the evolution in the writing, I really think every song has a strong hook, which was something I wanted to make happen. I very much enjoy performing a song where you see the audience singing along, especially after 16 years as an underground DJ."
