Randy Jackson to perform Saturday in Bayfield

Local musicians Jung, Kaufmann to open show
Randy Jackson, one of the founding members of Zebra, will perform Saturday at the Bayfield Performing Arts Center. Bayfield musicians Callie Jung and Savannah Kaufmann will open the show.

Randy Jackson, the lead singer of the influential rock band Zebra, will perform an acoustic show in Bayfield on Saturday, Nov. 4.

He has played at the Bayfield Performing Arts Center twice before, including in 2015, when Zebra was promoting its 40th anniversary. It's one of the few rock bands that has had the same members for that long, he noted.

In addition to playing with band members Guy Gelso and Felix Hanemann, Jackson has evolved on other musical fronts. In 2014, he released "Empathy for the Walrus," a CD of Beatles songs produced by Red River Records to commemorate 40 years of Beatles music.

At his 2015 show, he performed an eclectic mix of the Beatles covers, Led Zeppelin, Elton John and Zebra tunes.

Opening Saturday's performance will be two local musicians, singer-songwriter Callie Jung, and Savannah Kaufmann, who plans to continue studying guitar after she graduates from Bayfield High School. Tickets are $20 and are available online at ticketriver.com or at the door of the Bayfield Performing Arts Center.

The show is set to start at 7 p.m.
