Bob Moog, the electronic-music pioneer and inventor of the synthesizer that bears his name, loved Asheville, N.C., and lived there for years. That's why the Moog Foundation, run by his daughter Michelle Moog-Koussa, is located there. In this segment, Moog-Koussa discusses her father's relationship to the area and his history as an inventor. Check out the Spotify playlist on this page for more Moog-centric music.
