Mars were a short-lived New York City No Wave band formed by vocalist Sumner Crane in 1975. He was soon joined by China Burg, Mark Cunningham and Nancy Arlen. The group released a single live EP in 1980 and compilation called 78 in 1986, although both releases were posthumous as the band broke up in 1978. They appear on the influential No New York compilation LP produced by Brian Eno, which brought No Wave into the foreground.
