March 19 [16:00 EST] -- With a sound that combines mambo beats, Dixieland arrangements, and flat out swing, the Squirrel Nut Zippers will take to the highways and byways of America in support of their latest album, "Hot."

The revivalist North Carolina sextet have been earning more airplay recently on MTV's sister station M2 with the video for "Hell" (whose title appears as "Afterlife" on screen), and have earned heaps of critical praise for both "Hot" and their debut "The Inevitable."

If the band isn't hitting your town, you can still get a close up look at the band via the multi-media contents of the CD-ROM enhanced "Hot" disc. The CD offers a concert slideshow, songs and complete lyrics from the band's two albums, and interview clips among other treats.
