Mars Williams
$15 ($12 adv.).
press release: On Saturday, May 12, ALL will present Chicago saxophonist Mars Williams and a special guest drummer. Mars Williams is an open-minded musician, composer, and educator who commutes easily between free jazz, funk, hip-hop and rock. John Zorn credits Mars as “one of the true saxophone players—someone who takes pleasure in the sheer act of blowing the horn.” This tremendous enthusiasm is an essential part of Zorn’s sound, and it comes through each note every time he plays. Whatever the situation, Zorn plays exciting music and in many ways he has succeeded in redefining what versatility means to the modern saxophone player.
