Squirrel Nut Zippers will take fans on a magical, musical voyage to the birthplace of jazz as they present Jazz from the Back O’ Town, a show exploring the New Orleans Back O’ Town jazz scene of the late 19th century through the Roaring Twenties. Performing in era-appropriate attire, the Zippers provide a delightful view into this mystical era with reverent but exciting renditions of such seminal classics as Jelly Roll Morton’s “Animule Ball” and Louis Armstrong’s “Back O’ Town Blues,” as well as favorites from their own catalog, adapted and arranged to more closely echo the sounds of 1920s New Orleans.
