Description
Shinyribs is a shindig, and a large one at that, but it is also a vehicle for band leader Kev Russell’s unique brand of poetry, which can point to deeper, darker issues at times, especially on his latest album Transit Damage. We spoke with Kev in early October 2023 ahead of Shinyribs’ performance as headliner at The Albino Skunk Music Festival, where we talked about the secret sauce that went into his new album, about making good records in the studio and being equally good live, how starting Shinyribs felt like a "Hail Mary" to him at first, plus we discuss James Brown and an Albino Skunk Fest memory which parallels one of The Godfather of Soul’s signature parts of his shows. There is a lot more, including more live music from Shinyribs’ performance that night.
