Apocalypse Cow is a force of mainly three composers who create inventive music, whether it is for film, television, games, or fellow artists. Because not all music is the same, here's a studio that's different! Film scores include The Hollywood Dream, documentary scores for A Role of Their Own and Two Brothers, One Beer and the American Dream; and Background Cues for Emmy Award-winning TV sitcom Samantha Who, the History Channel’s Cities of the Underworld, and The Food Network’s Ace of Cakes. Projects include music for Dr. 90210 and commercials for Sunbeam and Mountain Dew.
The two brothers (Jeffrey and Dan Jeremy) and wife (Theresa) have been writing songs or involved in music since childhood. They founded Apocalypse Cow in 1999, when their hobby demanded turning it into a full-time family business. Since then, Apocalypse Cow has created music videos, scored films, produced charting rock albums, and written music for arcade games, exercise videos, music libraries and more. Apocalypse Cow also houses a full recording studio so musicians can easily be recorded live when needed.
