EXSIMIO, is a band from Chile formed in 1995 by Carlos Perez (bass guitar), Claudio Corcione (guitar), Juan Ignacio ¨Iñaki¨ Varela (guitar) and Fernando Jaramillo (drums). The band records their first Ep with 4 songs live recorded. 
It was a limited edition and mainly for broadcasting.

In january 1999, the band starts to record their first Lp. An independent production with 11 songs and named "Exsimio". The recording and mixing was financed by the band and the fonds for the mastering and the edition of copies were 
given by FONDART - Fonds For The Development Of Chilian Arts And Culture. FONDART is only given to a few amount of projects, and the selection is made by a specialized committee. This important goal was made by EXSIMIO with a main 
purpose: to project the band in the national and international market.

In november 1999, EXSIMIO is invited to L.A. -California to play at the opening of the Julie Rico Art Galery. The band gave interviews to La Opinion, the most important latin newspaper in U.S.A, Al Borde Magazine, and TU MUSICA, 
music tv program at channel 54 where the video clip of the song Cigoto - the band first single- was presented. Back in Chile, ESIMIO presented their first album live. The Lp started to be distributed by Musicland label through 
Chile and Argentina, and recieves excellent critics by the specialized press. This same year the band creates their own web site, www.exsimio.cl.

In October, the band receives a call from Mexico, telling that EXSIMIO will be part of the 5th version Of the BajaProg Fest - one of the most important progressive music festival around the world.. 
EXSIMIO would be in representation of Chile, togheter with bands from France, Germany, U.S.A., Spain, Poland, Indonesia, Hungry and Mexico. The band went to the festival recieving flathering words from the local press and 
putting EXSIMIO within the 5 best bands of the festival. The band also recieved an invitation to play in Chihuahua with the italian band FINISTERRE. 
Later the band would go to the University Of Baja California to play with a local band called ARIA. The presence of EXSIMIO in Mexico, would open the door so that two new chilean bands would be invited to the festival in the year 2002.
