When Son Little released his 2015 self-titled debut, his collaborations with The Roots and RJD2 had already made him a name. Critics worldwide recognized the unique power of Little’s music, which stripped the past for parts that could be reconstituted into something wholly original. NPR hailed Little’s “impeccably crafted songs” as “honest and unpretentious,” while The Independent proclaimed him “a formidable talent,” and Vice declared that he was “dissolving the barrier between R&B and rock ‘n’ roll one tearjerker at a time.” Little won a 2016 Grammy Award for his work producing Mavis Staples’ acclaimed See That My Grave Is Kept Clean, and in 2017, Paste said his album New Magic “did for the blues what Sharon Jones did for soul music.”

With his latest album, Like Neptune, Son Little turns inward, transforming personal struggles into a deeply soulful and uplifting sound. Written in a cabin overlooking the Delaware River, the album channels his journey of self-discovery and healing into hypnotic grooves, raw vocals, and bold production. Fusing blues, soul, and psychedelic textures, he weaves a sound that’s both deeply personal and universally resonant.

Known for his ability to blend vintage influences with a forward-thinking approach, Son Little crafts music that’s as cathartic as it is timeless — honest, unfiltered, and always full of heart.
