Outrun The Sunlight is a progressive instrumental metal studio project started by Austin Peters and Cody McCarty in February 2011. The original intention was to experiment with music composition and sound recording, as neither Austin or Cody had any prior recording experience. Equipped with a Presonus guitar interface, Garageband, and a few ideas, the two hashed together their demo EP "Architecture of the Cosmos" which caught the eye of many listeners, blog-sites, Facebook fan pages, and other artists, and through the miracle of social networking, Outrun The Sunlight was able to build a fan-base that was strictly limited to the internet.
