SMOOTA AND THE BEAST is a groove-heavy psychedelic instrumental group featuring some of the best musicians in NYC. Inspired by early Funkadelic, Sun Ra, Ennio Morricone, and electric Miles Davis, the music explores both ecstatic sounds and contemplative moods. "Girls On Planet Mars," from the band's upcoming debut album, is the soundtrack to WILL-O, a dance video directed by Cheryl Dunn with legendary dance organization Jacob Jonas The Company.
