The Outernet

Active since: 2023

In the realm of progressive jazz rock, The Outernet is a fresh force redefining musical boundaries. Led by visionary keyboardist and composer Phil Turcio, the band features Pete Drummond (drums), Pete Mollica (bass), and rising guitarist Emilio Kormanic. Each member brings a unique virtuosity, creating a rich, genre-defying sound. Phil’s spontaneous, almost mystical compositional process, powered by modern technology, shapes much of the band’s creative drive. Emilio’s partnership with Phil, forged pre-COVID, adds a layer of musical telepathy, while Mollica's decades-long collaboration with Phil grounds the group with deep chemistry
