Ranger and the “Re-Arrangers” with Neil Andersson are set to perform 7 p.m. Saturday, March 21 at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art Auditorium.

Andersson is a member of the Northwest Music Awards Hall of Fame. In 1993 he co-founded the seminal gypsy jazz band Pearl Django, eventually recording 10 albums with the group.

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

Admission is free, but donations are accepted. Space is limited, so reservations are highly recommended.
