SUMMARY:Squirrel Nut Zippers @ Higher Ground
DESCRIPTION:The Point Welcomes: \nSquirrel Nut Zippers \nA Tour de Point Show\n \n  \nThursday\, November 9\, 2023  Doors: 7:30 PM / Show: 8 PM \nHigher Ground | South Burlington\, VT \n– Tickets and Event Info – \n  \nThe Squirrel Nut Zippers began their musical journey in Chapel Hill\, North Carolina\, in the mid 1990’s\, as a musician’s escape from the cookie cutter world of modern rock radio at the time.  Jimbo Mathus along with wife Katherine Whalen and drummer Chris Phillips formed the band as a casual musical foray playing for friends and family around town.  It wasn’t long before the band (which had grown in size) developed a reputation for pioneering a quirky mix of jazz chords\, folk music\, and punk rock leanings and attracted a national audience. Since those days the Squirrel Nut Zippers have continued to perform to a wide variety of audiences\, venues and settings\, and have recently released two new studio albums. \nBeasts Of Burgundy released in 2018 debuted at #4 on the Billboard Jazz Albums Chart to critical acclaim:    “There is\, of course\, jazz of various stripes (mainly pre-WWII varieties) on this deliciously wide-ranging comeback\, but there’s so much more: sounds\, identifiable and not\, emanating from mysterious times and places\, not the least of which is New Orleans\, their home base\, a land that\, forever and still\, has a mind of its own.” – Relix \nLost Songs of Doc Souchon released in 2020 is a combination of newly written Zippers material\, along with a few songs from past times like “Animule Ball” which was originally recorded in 1938 by Jelly Roll Morton.  In keeping with that time period\, the band turned to their longtime friends at Fleischer Studios (home of Betty Boop) to use some of their historic animations for a video for the track.  Watch here: https://youtu.be/ser63u9MmYM \nThe Squirrel Nut Zippers continue to confound audiences with their hybrid stew of Southern roots music\, New Orleans Jazz\, Vaudeville\, Blues and a healthy touch irreverence.  Not traditionalists – true originals.
