“Blurring the boundaries between Art and Rock, Maxi Geil! and Playcolt have been setting their native Brooklyn's live circuit alight with a heady mix of glam styling and funky riffs.” --ArtRabbit

Maxi Geil! and PlayColt is fronted by Guy Richard Smit, a visual and performance artist who, in the words of Saatchi Online Magazine critic, Ana Finel Honigman, writes satirical operas centered around the self-esteem struggles of an insecure porn star, the ties between art celebrity and stand-up comedy, and the art world's dramas and fluffy foolishness. As the stylishly sociopathic character Maxi Geil! (German slang for 'super horny'), Smit channels the gritty glamour of the 80’s East Village scene with its romanticized madness, poetic perversion and overheated artistic climate.  Among the bands participants are actor/artist Zoe Lister-Jones, drummer Jeff Somoya, rhythm guitarist Mark Ephraim and lead guitarist John Allen.
