Periferia del Mondo was formed in Rome in 1996 by woodwind player Alessandro Papotto (BANCO del Mutuo Soccorso), guitarist Giovanni Tommasi and bassist Claudio Braico, who were soon joined by drummer Tony Zito and keyboardist Bruno Vegliante. The band has performed several shows in Italy and abroad, and released two albums in CD and LP format: "In ogni Luogo, In ogni tempo" (2000) and "Un Milione di Voci" (2002), both featuring important guests such as Mauro Pagani, Vittorio Nocenzi, Francesco di Giacomo, Massimo Alviti, Luca Sapio, and many others. The two albums gained large appreciation and enthusiastic reviews from radios and papers all around the world. Periferia del Mondo also appears on two live productions: the CD "Omaggio a Demetrio Stratos" (2000) and the DVD "Gouveia Art Rock 2004" recorded in Portugal during their exhibition at the Gouveia Art Rock Festival together with Richard Sinclair Band and Isildurs. The style is a kaleidoscope of colours spreading from jazz-rock to psychedelic music to symphonic rock.
