Ranger and the “Re-Arrangers” will perform at a swing and Gypsy jazz concert with special guest Neil Andersson later this month at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art.

Andersson is a member of the Northwest Music Awards Hall of Fame and is known as an incredible jazz guitarist. In 1993, he co-founded the seminal gypsy jazz band Pearl Django and recorded 10 albums with the group.

The free concert is 7 p.m. Saturday, April 19 in the BIMA Auditorium.

The concert will feature music from Ranger and the “Re-Arrangers” repertoire of American swing standards, traditional Gypsy melodies, and the music of Django Reinhardt. Violinist Ranger Sciacca will provide the counterpoint to Andersson’s guitar.

Admission is free but donations are welcome. Space is limited, and reservations are highly recommended.
