The Squirrel Nut Zippers never cease to amazed and provide great music and entertainment. Their eclectic sound is one of their best assets. Highly recommend any chance to hear them live.
Entertaining! Don't think I would see them again but glad I saw them once,
SNZ puts on a fun show, and the band seems to have as much fun as the crowd. Good show!
This was my first time at the Birchmere and seeing the Squirrel Nut Zippers live. They are a must see and unique group of extremely talented musicians. This will be my family’s new holiday tradition. We can’t wait to see them next year!
The Shell is a lovely outdoors, on the grass, bring your own bag chair venue in Memphis. It also is a great supporter of the local arts. The crowd was enthusiastic and polite. Lots of dancers and room for them up front. Venue staffers were polite. The SNZs are wonderfully talented, animated and connect well with their fans. If you can experience this music/show without grinning and dancing, my assessment is that you’re more-than-likely D-E-D. GO PARTAKE IN THESE NUTS, ANYWHERE. You’ll thank yourself (and me) that you did! I hereby extend my “You’re Welcome” in advance.🐿️🌰💤 Drool!!!
I loved this concert! I have been wanting to see the Squirrel Nut Zippers since the early 90's and the did not disappoint. They are very animated and I loved the fact there was a dance floor. So fun and energetic!
Great show at a beautiful venue. Open air amphitheater in a midtown Memphis park. Bring a lawn chair and enjoy a performance at the Shell along with your family and friends!
Folks I've been to A LOT of live shows of all different genres, and this was THE MOST FUN EVA! The music was awesome, and the talent and creativity of these guys and gal was off the chart! The sheer number of musical instruments they played, the costuming, the upbeat vibe and the general hilarity of it all was a 10+. I did not stop smiling from the minute they walked on stage until it was over. The audience engagement was remarkable...these are true showpeople who clearly want their audience to have a really, really good time, and they deliver!
Overton Shell is a beautiful venue and the Squirrel Nut Zippers put on a fantastic show. Their music is fun to listen to, but they engaged the audience until the whole place was involved. However, don't let the showmanship distract you from their music. Those cats can play!
Extremely muddled performance with horrible unbalanced sound.No changes of pace and poor communication.
This show was unbelievable! What amazing talent! I don't know what was better - Their musicianship with the multiple instruments they played, or their extremely strong vocals. I used to play their CD's years ago and always wanted to see them, but I had no idea they would be this good. Ultra high energy! I would definitely see them again!
I honestly thought the squirrel nut zippers would be awesome, but they far far far exceeded my expectations. One of the best shows I’ve seen in my life. I’ll definitely see them again!
The Parker Playhouse is so beautiful! Everyone working there was super friendly. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band was the perfect band to open for the Squirrel Nut Zippers. The show was super charged with energy. I’ve been to a lot of concerts and this show was the best one so far!!!
My Squirrel Nut Zippers CDs are a great sound—audible words, all instruments in balance. Live concert was a cacophony: all sounds blasted into one amorphous noise. Maybe the acoustics contributed to the din, but the performance was terribly frustrating and a major disappointment.
I love the squirrel nut zippers albums, especially their takes on swing. This show was loud and theatrical, but ultimately boring. I did not go to see them try to be sexy ( they aren’t), doing splits and smirks, basically doing a series of novelty songs with little of true musical interest. We left after about 45 minutes. What’s a shame is that the opening act, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, was fantastic. We would gladly have danced to them all evening!
The opening band was not really our thing, so we waited in the lobby where the sound was a little better. But once the Squirrel Nut Zippers were on the stage to a house that was packed, the energy rose. Couples were literally dancing in the aisles and this theater has enough space to stand and dance a little in front of your own seat. I hadn't seen the Zippers in years, but I'm SO GLAD I saw this show. Worth every penny!!
I love the SNZ! Although they are not all originals members, the music speaks for itself. These are a bunch of talented and fun musicians. A great show and sound. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band were also great.
The energy was unmatched by any performance I have ever seen. The Dirty Dozen are among the most talented musicians I have ever crossed and the squirrel nut zipper's feel and talent is insane. I met Bimbo Mathus afterward which was also a serene experience. Thank you to both bands for enriching my night so heavily.
From the moment I walked into the venue the energy was buzzing. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band got everyone moving and the Squirrel Nut Zippers kept the party going. Amazing musicians, excellent talent, and fantastic venue!
Always one of the most fantastic, foot tapping, balcony shaking shows.
