Review

Option (7-8/95, p.139) - "...kind of like a Dixieland cocktail, drenched in horns and percussive as all git-out...if chanteuse Katherine Whalen is no Billie Holliday, she's so good you don't mind her trying..."

Title Note

Squirrel Nut Zippers: Ken Mosher (vocals, guitar, alto saxophone, baritone saxophone); Tom Maxwell (vocals, guitar, percussion); James "Jimbo" Mathus (vocals, guitar); Katharine Whalen (vocals, banjo); Stacy Guess (trumpet);

Don Raleigh (acoustic bass); Chris Phillips (drums, percussion).

Additional personnel: John Kempannin (violin).

Recorded at WaveCastle Studios, Hillsborough, North Carolina.

In a mid-'90s indie scene that seemed stuck in an increasingly by-the-numbers rut, the debut by this septet from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, led by guitarist/singer Jim Mathus (who had previously been in the considerably more indiepop-oriented Metal Flake Mother), was both a complete shock and a hot topic of debate. Whether listeners loved the Squirrel Nut Zippers' indescribable mix of '20s hot jazz, vaudeville novelties, calypsos, and New Orleans-style second-line music or considered them arch non-rock stylistic fetishists, it was impossible not to pay attention. That the band has two excellent singers and songwriters besides Mathus, banjoist Katherine Whalen and guitarist Tom Maxwell, adds to the astonishing stylistic diversity on THE INEVITABLE. Among the highlights on this entertaining album are "La Grippe," Maxwell's paean to influenza, and "Good Enough for Grandad," a touching Mathus song about the importance of family tradition that sounds like the Squirrel Nut Zippers' manifesto.
