In 1979, at the age of 10, Ross landed the role of Joey in the classic comedy feature film Airplane!, notably in a scene with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Peter Graves.
Taking their name from an X-rated Italian comic book of the same name, Sukia was notable for their crazy, often perverse live shows, which sometimes featured a naked saxophone player.
Sukia toured the world with acts like Beck and Stereolab, and subsequently put out one album on the Dust Brothers' fledgling label Nickel Bag Records in 1997.
The album, Contacto Espacial con el Tercer Sexo (Space Contact with the Third Sex), was produced by the Dust Brothers and Jerry Finn.
In addition to Harris' role as "Ross Angeles", it stars Rory Cochrane, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Laura Prepon, Beck, Hank Williams III, and features the final recorded live performance of jazz drummer Billy Higgins.
Harris spearheaded the benefit album Dimension Mix, which pays tribute to children's electronic music pioneers Bruce Haack and Esther Nelson.
