Aaron Livingston, a.k.a. ANTI- recording artist Son Little, the opening act for tonight’s show at Johnny Brenda’s, has the type of natural soul-gripping vocals that make you stop what you’re doing, hone-in, and ask, "Who’s that?" Already having worked with such accomplished artists as The Roots and rjd2, Son Little’s neo-soul pulls from the toolbox of his predecessors, using his vocals as a means to skillfully express a full palette of emotion from pleasure to perseverance, giving listeners a zoomed-in view of his inner workings – a personal proximity that exudes strength. The sleek synth & string-layered indie pop of Snowmine will bridge the gap to the electro-dance pop of fellow Brooklynites Small Black. Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 8pm, $12, 21+ – Michael Colavita
