Squirrel Nut Zippers - Squirrel Nut Zippers Starring In Fat City (The Ballad Of Lil' Tony) To capture the proper intrigue, we recorded while on tour with the SNZ Christmas Caravan in December 2025. We set up microphones in historic spaces like Turner Hall and the Stoughton Opera House, utilizing the natural acoustics of these lovely old theaters. The result is a sprawling musical narrative-part fiction, part non-fiction, and part autobiography. It showcases the full scope of the Zippers' dedication to theater and craft. I hope it brings joy and mystery to our fans, past and present.
