Outsider Is Georgian band which was formed in 1989 in Qutaisi by Robi Kukhianidze. Robi doesn't considers himself as punk or alternative musician (so called alternativshik), though his band Outsider has both punk and alternative elements in it. He dislike when someone calls him father of Kutaisian rock or father of Georgian alternative music, moreover he don't likes such conditional titles.
He considers Peter Mamonov, well-known Russian underground musician, as one of his biggest teacher. The Outsider recorded its first album "Inside" in Mamonov's studio, Moscow in 1992.
By the way this album was the first Georgian vinyl among Georgian rock-band albums which was recorded abroad. Outsider was the only Georgian band which took part in 1991 first in Talin and then in Moscow international alternative music festivals.
Front man, vocals and Guitar player of Trio Outsider, Robi Kukhianidze moved from Kutaisi to The capital in the year 2000. Despite this, his music was well known in Tbilisi from 1996 when he won a prize on festival "Margarita 96" as a best Georgian alternative musician.

Everyone creates their version of reality. We have created ours through music and we call it Afternoon Version. Why Afternoon? Why not ... we leave that question open for you to decide ... x

Afternoon Version is a Georgian alternative band that first emerged in 1993, in the thick of Georgia’s post-Soviet chaos—a time of blackouts, curfews, and creative defiance. Formed by five teenagers from Tbilisi, the band found inspiration in the emotional landscapes of British music from the 90s—artists like Massive Attack, Radiohead, and Depeche Mode—blending that influence with their own raw, electronic-infused sound.

The original lineup included George "Sikha" Sikharulidze (bass, vocals, programming), Zurab "Zuricha" Dzagnidze (guitar), Goga Kavtaradze (drums), Nicka Tsereteli (keyboards, backing vocals), and Dato Toidze (guitar), with Misha Abesadze on vocals in the very early phase. Over the years, the band saw several evolutions, but always kept its introspective core and deep sonic textures intact.

In late 2023, after years of sporadic releases and quiet reverence from a niche audience, the original lineup reformed for a special project focused on re-recording and reimagining their earliest songs. This emotional reunion wasn't just a nostalgia trip—it was a creative renewal that led to a powerful new wave of performances and recordings.

Their music—from early releases like Together to more recent EPs like Unfortunately Dizzy—has always been a mirror to inner lives, national atmosphere, and the surreal melancholy of time passing. Afternoon Version remains a band that doesn’t chase trends—they create sonic spaces where memory, emotion, and experimentation blur into something beautifully timeless.
