You’d have sworn that the shimmering guest vocals on The Roots’ 2004 “Guns Are Drawn” single belonged to any one of the Marleys, but the song features Aaron Livingston, ===Philadelphia soul man and one-half of the 2011 indie-funk duo Icebird. Since then, he’s rebranded himself as Son Little and released three ambitious refashions of retro soul and blues. His latest three-song suite, neve give up—and this night’s live treat—is a royal teaser for his upcoming full-length release, aloha. —Eric Tullis
