Animation, Art, and Other Shiny Things
A swingin’ tune for a late weekend night by Jazzbit featuring Stefano di Battista.
More excellent animation from TinSpider Studio. The ‘old style’ animation pairs very well with this great neo-swing tune!
Music by Enzo Siffredi & JFTH
Your Saturday rogue video is a great mash of animation and musical styles.

Formed in 1993, the Squirrel Nut Zippers play an eclectic mix of jazz, blues, klezmer, and swing. They found some popularity in the late 90’s during a neo-swing revival that included artists such as Cherry Poppin’ Daddies and Mocean Worker.
“Nut Zippers,” is a southern term for a variety of old bootleg moonshine, and the band’s name comes from a newspaper account which related the story of a highly intoxicated man who climbed a tree one night, refusing to come down even after authorities arrived. The article’s headline read: “Squirrel Nut Zipper.” It is also the name of a candy dating back to 1890. via
