Biography

Emerald Web created a melodic brew of Fantasy, Space and New Age music that was renowned for its rarefied blend of synthesizers and acoustic instruments. The husband and wife duo, Bob Stohl and Kat Epple were pioneers in Electronic Music, New Age Music, healing music, and music technology. From 1977-1990, as Emerald Web, they recorded 12 albums of original music on various record labels, and composed film scores for Apple Computers, PBS, and famed astronomer, Carl Sagan, among others. Their concerts in planetariums, observatories, museums, and other unusual venues, were performed on an array of now-vintage synthesizers, Lyricon Electronic Wind Instruments, flutes, and other acoustic instruments. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, Emerald Web’s extraordinary hybrid sound was a significant influence during a transformative era in music. www.KatEpple.com
