Who We Are

In the ever-evolving landscape of progressive jazz rock, a new force has emerged that's bound to turn heads and redefine musical boundaries.

Led by the visionary keyboardist, producer and composer Phil Turcio, 'The Outernet' stands as a testament to the boundless creativity that can flourish when like-minded virtuosos come together. With Phil Turcio at the helm, Pete Drummond on drums, Pete Mollica on bass, and the promising newcomer Emilio Kormanic on guitar, the ensemble has woven an intricate tapestry of sound that defies categorization.

The foundation of 'The Outernet' is built upon the eclectic talents of its members, each contributing their unique musical prowess to craft a sonic experience like no other. Phil Turcio's journey in music began in his mid-teens, a spark of creativity that has since evolved into a blazing fire of inspiration. His compositions possess an almost mystical origin, often coming to life within hours of entering his mind. It's a phenomenon that speaks volumes about the instantaneous connection between his thoughts and the intricate melodies he creates. The modern marvels of technology allow Phil to capture the essence of his creations with remarkable speed, leaving an indelible mark on the band's music

The result of their efforts is an auditory experience that demands to be witnessed, captivating audiences and fellow musicians alike.
