Time plows forward, as does the urge to make music, for some. Both can be unstoppable forces. So here we have the 25^th anniversary (a year late, thanks to the Tea Fire, and other factors) of Headless Household, Santa Barbara's peculiar and ongoing, eclectic excuse of a band. Mixing up mixed-up elements of jazz, free improvisation, avant-Americana, Europeana, rock, soul and a new strain of Braziliana (in time for the bossa nova's 50^th birthday), the band presents its first concert in the historic Lobero Theatre, on Friday, March 19, coinciding with the CD release party for its eighth feature-length album, the double-disc item called Basemento.
