As we mentioned in our preview of Son Little’s homecoming show at Johnny Brenda’s last Friday, nothing stops him from putting on a tight, compelling show.

Even though Aaron Livingston dealt with technical difficulties, a restless sold-out crowd, and some audience members showing complete disregard for him during soft songs, he ultimately regrouped and went on to play a stellar set. Joined at times by guests like DRGN King’s Lucy Stone, Son Little tore through a barn-storming and eventually-transfixing (through no fault of his own) group of songs that included cuts from his excellent new self-titled album, some older pieces, and even a sultry cover of Drake’s Hotline Bling.

Opener Xenia Rubinos, playing before both levels of the venue filled up, was equally captivating. Her unique blend of electronica, salsa, funk, and other genres was grounded by a virtuoso drummer and uplifted by her own agile volice.
