Senator hosts Ozo
As part of the SnowCore Icicle Ball Tour, Interscope recording artist Ozomatli (pictured, and, as it so happens, named after the Aztec god of dance) headlines a great show at the Senator Theatre, at 517 Main St. in downtown Chico. The band weaves some of the most danceable and eclectic music combinations imaginable, stitching together such diverse influences as Indian, Latin, African and more. Also on this amazing bill are funk-jazzer Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, hip-hoppers Blackalicious, and performance poet Saul Williams! Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets: $21 in advance; $25 at the door.
