Son Little

If you’ve been keeping an eye on the local music scene, you might have noticed that Son Little is scheduled to perform in Brighton on Sunday, 19 April 2026. He’ll be taking the stage at Dust Brighton, which you can find at 77 East Street. The performance is set to run from 19:00 until 22:00, giving a three-hour window to hear his latest material live. It’s a fairly intimate setting for an artist who has spent his career refining a very specific, gravelly vocal style that has become his trademark.

The setlist for this tour is centred around his album Like Neptune. It’s a 12-track collection that marks a distinct change in direction for him. Where his previous work often dealt with existential dread, this record focuses on the process of finding inner peace and navigating the complexities of generational trauma. It’s a shift towards self-acceptance and a more open, joyful tone. Throughout the album, his signature rasp remains the focal point, acting as the primary instrument that carries these narratives. Seeing how these tracks translate from the studio to a live setting at a venue like Dust Brighton will be interesting, especially given the shift in his lyrical approach. The music leans into a blend of blues and rock, but the core of the experience is really about the lyrical content and the way he delivers those stories.

Regarding the logistics, the venue is located at BN1 1NF. While the specific ticket prices are currently marked as TBC, the event is set up for online booking, so you can secure your spot through the official event pages. It’s a space that regularly hosts live music, and this show fits into their broader programme of entertainment. Whether you’re a long-time listener of his blues and rock-influenced sound or you’re just curious about how he’s evolved his songwriting to tackle themes of mental health and personal growth, this date provides a straightforward opportunity to catch him in the city. It’s a chance to see an artist who is currently in a very different headspace compared to his earlier releases, performing in a venue that is well-integrated into the local Brighton music circuit.
