Karrie's Squirrel Nut Zippers Page:

It all started when Jim and Katharine met somewhere in the Chapel Hill area.. The two had a shared love of art, and began making puppets together. Katharine's mother suggested the two of them getting together, and they eventually moved to Efland where they renovated a farm house. The two spent much of their time painting and listening to old jazz standards. Then during a potluck dinner, they invited some friends to come over and play music. This turned out to be the twist of fate that began the group's career. Katharine learned to play the banjo, and began to sing to herself in the car.

Stuart Cole, Jim Mathus, Chris Phillips, Ken Mosher, Je Widenhouse, Tom Maxwell, and Katharine Whalen.

"When this band started it was just to get Katharine involved in a musical... lifestyle, I guess," Jimbo says. I ask him what he would have done if she hadn't been musically inclined. He hadn't considered it. "I sort of had her on the six-week crash course, How To Have Been A Musician All Your Life." Jimbo had in his possession a kind of family-heirloom banjo, and it so happened that Katharine had always admired the jazz banjo ...
