About Me

Mars began playing music at an early age and it was clearly evident that music was his gift. As a multi-instrumentalist he plays keyboards and soprano/tenor saxophone, however, the bass is his primary instrument. Mars has performed and/or recorded with numerous artists and bands from a variety of musical genres, including; Showers of Blessing (gospel ensemble), M-Groove (smooth jazz collaboration), Duty Calls (rock band), Denise Pelley (jazz singer), Orlando Valencia (latin band), Soulbender (R&B band), Anxious Blue (pop duo), Rufus (R&B singer), Jacob Moon (christian singer/guitarist), Joe Edmonds (jazz saxophonist), McCauley (R&B group), Mac Graham (Pop/R&B singer) and Superbeings (Pop/Rock band). From recording sessions to live performances, Mars has earned a reputation for delivering "THE FUNK" with sophistication. Mars plays Warwick basses and Roland Synthesizers.
