In the tradition of the great large Jazz ensembles of the last half of
the 20th century, The “Skatch” Anderssen Orchestra began carving
its own niche into the Northeast Ohio area musical landscape around
1990. Bandleaders Eric Dregne and Scott McKee's intention is to enlist
the finest musicians for the SAO to guarantee you will hear a
high-powered, high-quality performance every Monday night. A typical
show frequently features a special theme, a guest artist from out of
town or a local opening band. Not content with playing only the
standards of the big band golden era, the SAO features many
challenging compositions of local composers and arrangers along with
Thad Jones, Buddy Rich, Woody Herman, Kenny Clarke, Maynard Ferguson
and others. For society jobs, the SAO will play the old chestnuts that
people love to hear along with mixing in some swingin’ arrangements
of familiar Jazz Standards. $7 Admission • Great food, great drink &
