Mars Williams is one of those rare musicians who successfully approaches music as a continuum, rather than a series of discrete genres. His spectrum extends from well-known 80’s band The Waitresses to Chicago’s Liquid Soul to the Peter Brötzmann Tentet. Savvy listeners may recognize Mars as the saxophonist with the Psychedelic Furs beginning with their 1984 release "Mirror Moves." One of the cornerstones of the Chicago improvised music scene, he brings one of his newest groups to the Garver Patio on July 9th, in a performance presented by Blue Stem Jazz.
