From never considering herself to be much of a performer to honing an eight year career of music and guitar mastery that is capable of shifting to rock, folk, jazz, and country, Charlotte Littlehales has steadfastly found herself immersed in the local music scene. With Scott Churchman (Ape School, Folklore) and Lux Perpetua’s Jason Wolf (formerly of The Extraordinaires) backing her live on stage, the crew skillfully brings her songs to life. And if you choose to ring in the New Year by seeing her open for bluegrass crooner Joe Brady at The Fire tonight, then you might get treated to some music from her upcoming album that’s currently in the works. Also joining them will be charming indie popsters Arrah & The Ferns, whose album All The Bad in One Place was one of the brightest of 2010. And if you catch their set, then you might be able to find out more on how you can help them with their upcoming music video that’s destined to be filled with unicorns and sombreros. The Fire, 412 W.
