Delve into the rich history of The Squirrel Nut Zippers (SNZ), whose journey began in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, during the vibrant music scene of the mid-1990s. What started as a casual musical venture by Jimbo Mathus, Katherine Whalen, and Chris Phillips, evolved into a pioneering force, blending jazz chords, folk melodies, and punk rock sensibilities. The Zippers will provide a delightful view into 1920s New Orleans, with reverent, yet exciting, renditions from their catalog, adapted and arranged to more closely echo the sounds of the mystical era.
