  • Nutty and Fun

    by Jazzear on 9/5/17Birchmere - AlexandriaRating: 5 out of 5

    The Squirrel Nut Jobs--I mean Squirrel Nut Zippers--put on an incredible show. You cannot pigeonhole this band. Their sound is distinctively retro, but they've added a lot of quirkiness and energy to it. Hard to say whether you'd like them, because they're in a class by themselves. The closest thing to it, for me, is either Brave Combo or Bumper Jackson. If you like this, then you might check out the DC Weirdo Show, at the Bier Baron near Dupont Circle, in Washington. Not for everyone, but I loved it.

  • Absolutely Awesome

    by GoogyJames on 9/5/17Birchmere - AlexandriaRating: 5 out of 5

    Even better than expected. I love this band. The sound man gave my son the setlist.

    Fantastic night at the Birchmere with the sounds of the Squirrel Nut Zippersand the Birchmeres usual high quality menu served by the most professional and talented wait staff! The Zippers sound is amazing, the show they put on is even more amazing! High energy swing with high energy performers! After the show it was such a pleasure to be able to mingle with and get a few pictures with various Zippers....they not only performed at a high level of talen; but they took the time (when you know they had to be tired) to spend so much time with the fans who travelled to see them. That was such a great opportunity to let them know how much we enjoyed their show.....I am a fan forever!

  • Pure fun

    by Philberson on 9/5/17Birchmere - AlexandriaRating: 5 out of 5

    Awesome musicians putting on a fun, high energy performance. I own several of their albums but the live performance far exceeded expectations.

  • Fun concert

    Saw squirrel nut zippers at Tilles Center they were great!

  • Squirrel Nut Zippers Exciting Revival

    by George269 on 8/28/17Tilles Center Concert Hall - BrookvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    I was hooked on Squirrel Nut Zippers "Hot" album over 20 years ago and was captivated again by their performance at the Tillis Center at C W Post - Long Island University. The concert was exciting and fun. The catchy rhythms, riffs and lyrics of their songs are performed with great showmanship and in a New Orleans carnival atmosphere. I and the rest of the audience loved it.

  • Squirrel Nut Zippers were amazing!

    by SBSNorth on 8/28/17Tilles Center Concert Hall - BrookvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    A fun evening of upbeat happy body moving music. Twisted circus was unnecessary.

  • by Anonymous on 8/28/17Tilles Center Concert Hall - BrookvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    Fun, wonderful and engaging performance. A concert to remember.

  • Squirrel Nut Zippers amazing!

    by gbakken on 4/7/17The Fillmore - San FranciscoRating: 5 out of 5

    The show at the Fillmore was totally awesome. We got to stand in the front row. The show was dynamic, full of energy and flawlessly executed. The opening band California Feetwarmers was also very entertaining. Let me say that Dr. Sick is such a great addition to the band and sound. He adds a ton of personality and fun to the show as well. After watching many of the concert clips online, I had really liked Ingrid Lucia as the female lead and was worried about Cella Blue, but after a few songs, I really liked her performance. Again, high energy, fun, funny! Jimbo is a great Entertainer. The horns section was great. Love Tamara on the bass as well. Ok, the whole band is just amazing, can't say enough. This was my wife's first time experiencing the band, their music and the show - my first time seeing them live. We left with smiles all over!

  • Always Squirrel Nut Zippers

    by MarkDunc on 4/7/17The Fillmore - San FranciscoRating: 5 out of 5

    Let's put their stellar musicianship to the side and talk about what beautiful people they are. Their love for people and music is always put out front in the party they have onstage. That natural sound of vintage big band swing fills the room, you can hear, see, and feel the care they have for the show, the fans, and the art. I will always drop what I'm doing to see them perform!

  • by Anonymous on 11/19/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 5 out of 5

    The Squirrel Nut Zippers show on Saturday was incredible. What a great group of musicians. One of the best moments was when the fiddle player sat down during a slower tune, picked up a hand saw and bow, and played a solo with it. I've seen it done before but to see it in person was awesome. Go see them if you get a chance. You won't be dissappointed.

  • EXCEPTIONAL!

    by JerseyComedyFan on 11/15/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 5 out of 5

    Don't miss these GREAT performers. Their stage act and musicianship ranks with the best. I wasn't familiar with them and left loving what they did. They're so good that the venue staff had to give up trying to keep people from dancing in the aisles. I'll definitely see them again and next time go for front orchestra seats instead of first row balcony. The Squirrel Nut Zippers will give you a night out you'll cherish forever!

  • In the afterlife of SNZ

    by EhDeeCee on 11/15/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 3 out of 5

    I never saw the original SNZ lineup. I was aware this was not the original lineup of SNZ, but my husband is a huge fan of their music and their new female singer, Ingid Lucia, so we went. I was expecting a night of fun and dancing, but the audience at the Bergen PAC was not into the band at all. Anyone who got up and danced (including me and my husband) were asked to sit down. Who sits down at a concert, much less a band with swinging tunes?? Another bummer was Ingrid Lucia did not sing that night. And intermission was really weird. I've never been to a concert with intermission. Bottom line... although all of the musicians were good, I felt the band was missing a chemistry that makes a solid band. The violin player was the most amazing one of the night. He had the energy and the talent and the passion that I love to see in musicians.

  • by Anonymous on 11/15/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 5 out of 5

    Didn't know a whole lot about the band, had heard a few swing numbers and thought they had a cool name, so I went. It was Fan Tas TIC!!! Very high energy, great music, and really played to the crowd. A pity more of the crowd didn't dance in the aisles, because they were all for it. Would definitely go again!

  • They've still got it.

    by InteritusPandemonium on 11/15/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 5 out of 5

    Really great show. I can't say enough goid about these guys. I'm glad they started touring again. Now hopefully we can get a new album!

  • Thoroughly Entertaining and fun

    by Ojane on 11/15/16Bergen Performing Arts Center - EnglewoodRating: 5 out of 5

    On this anniversary tour, I was initially disappointed to read that Katherine Whalen would not be a part of it. And her sultry androgynous presence was missed on stage. But it was more than made up for in the character of Dr. Sick on violin, banjo, even the saw. Although at this point, there are only two original Zippers in the lineup, Jimbo has assembled a more than qualified group of new recruits that captured the old vibe perfectly. And again, I can't stress enough how entertaining the addition of Dr. Sick was. He more than made up for the vacuum left by Katherine and Tom Maxwell's absence. It was everything you want from a SNZ show - fun, entertaining, upbeat old school style!

  • Squirrel Nut Zippers are back!

    by sdresner on 11/3/16Ritz Theatre - JacksonvilleRating: 4 out of 5

    Don't call it a reunion but a revival. They still are super entertaining and sound amazing. While some of the original members are missing the new people make it their own and fit in great.

  • by Anonymous on 11/3/16Birchmere - AlexandriaRating: 5 out of 5

    Really great. They said "revival" not "reunion" and the music and players were great. Excellent venue too.

  • Performance of a lifetime.

    by Tronnn on 10/31/16Ritz Theatre - JacksonvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    The band sounded ridiculously good. The theatrics were perfect. Never a dull moment. Great personalities and storytelling.

  • INCREDIBLE!!!

    by TheGolfShrink on 10/31/16Ritz Theatre - JacksonvilleRating: 5 out of 5

    Great show, very entertaining, incredible musicians, they sounded phenomenal!!! Very interactive with the fans, one-of-a kind show, a must see! My old friend, Jimbo, is the George Clinton of GOOD TIME MUSIC!!!
