Mars Williams (born 1955 in Elmhurst, Illinois) is an American jazz and rock saxophonist. Originally a ten year classical clarinetist after being exposed to Big Band and Dixieland Jazz by his trumpet playing father, Mars migrated to the saxophone in his senior year of high school, citing influences from Eric Dolphy, John Coltrane and Charlie Parker. He then attended De Paul University and later the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians where he studied under the mentorship of founders Anthony Braxton and Roscoe Mitchell. In 2004 he was selected by the Moers Festival as their featured artist.
