Smokey Hormel has established himself in the music industry as one of the most diverse and in-demand guitarists available today. With a list of credits that includes the likes of Beck, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, Mick Jagger, and Beth Orton, it is clear that Smokey is capable of adapting to any musical situation, but on the side, his passion is brazillian music, a genre that he has been exploring with great passion with musical collaborator Miho Hatori, and their collaborations have resulted in a haunting and lovely collection of 60's era Brazillian music, including a hit song for the soundtrack of 2002 Independent film Y Tu Mama Tambien, entitled Ocean In Your Eyes.
