Sometimes, its a sprawling multi-piece ensemble slapping the air until it grooves; sometimes hes a somber subtle songwriter pouring poetry on the ground from a cup half full. Either way its always the house-party-meets-library that is, Kevin Russell. Raised in Beaumont, TX, and Shreveport, LAthe cradle of swamp pop, Leadbelly, and bayou RRussell distills those regional sounds into something both timeless and immediate, dripping from his fingers like honey, salt s heart. Shinyribs evolved from a solo residency Russell began under that moniker in the mid-2000s, after an incident in a Houston club, playing a private party for a group of welders where he bought a homeless woman a plate of ribs. Her name was Roberta, says Russell. She was a high priestess of transistor radios and an almost forgotten music she called Chilibump. For that plate of Ribs that night she gave me in return a name, Shinyribs and a road map to the mysterious big thicket sounds I had only heard of from old timers and time travelers.
