A fine, underrated trumpeter, Paul Mares was the leader of the pacesetting New Orleans Rhythm Kings.
Mares was always modest about his own playing, saying that he was influenced by Oliver, but the New Orleans Rhythm Kings became a major influence themselves on up-and-coming jazz musicians, including the members of the Austin High School Gang and Bix Beiderbecke.
Mares ran a barbeque restaurant, did defense plant work during World War II, and returned to music in 1945, leading a final band from 1945-48 that unfortunately never recorded.

The key members of the group (leader/cornetist Paul Mares, trombonist George Brunis, and clarinetist Leon Roppolo) were childhood friends from New Orleans.
Although Mares (unlike Nick LaRocca of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band) was modest about his own playing, saying that he was very influenced by King Oliver, he actually sounded quite a bit different and had a voice of his own.
Mares came back for one further session in 1935 but seemed happy in retirement, leaving the legacy of the NORK to history.

Mares phoned New Orleans and got childhood friend and trombonist George Brunies, who agreed to come to Chicago for the price of his train fare (paid by Mares’ father) and the loan of an overcoat from Mares’ brother.
Mares, Brunies, and Roppolo were the core—and the stars—of the band that would gain fame as the New Orleans Rhythm Kings, although the band would go through several changes of personnel.

 George Wettling | Biography | MTV
He was part of the Chicago jazz scene of the 1920s (where he moved with his family in 1921), and Baby Dodds was his main idol.
Wettling, who recorded with Paul Mares in the mid-'30s, was still mostly an unknown when he came to New York in 1935, playing briefly with Jack Hylton Orchestra.
However, his most rewarding work was done with small groups, notably his sessions in 1938 with a trio also including Bud Freeman and Jess Stacy; he also recorded with Jimmy McPartland, Wingy Manone, and Eddie Condon.

Mares's Metairie home was the site of a legendary jam-session in 1929 where Bix Beiderbecke and the other jazz playing members of the Paul Whiteman Orchestra jammed with the local New Orleans jazz musicians.
