The Hairbrain Scheme is a band that formed in 2004, featuring music majors at University of California, Santa Barbara.[1] The Santa Barbara Independent characterized their music as "creatively crazy, costume-wearing, genre-dissolving antidote to typical radio rock".[1]

The band played at West Coast venues and earned opening gigs for a broad range of major acts that including The Walkmen, Ima Robot, Busta Rhymes, Deadsy, RJD2, Damian Marley, and Mickey Avalon. [citation needed] Scheme members included vocalist Grant Parsons, bassist Nate Harris, keyboardist Chris Nava, and drummer Dan Bellinger.[1]

The group signed to upstart label Gridiron Records and re-located from Santa Barbara to San Francisco, where they continued to promote their music while maintaining a heavy schedule of gigs.
