During the pandemic, Shinyribs pitmaster Kevin Russell holed up like everyone else. At a distanced lunch at the Mueller food trucks, he described practically hallucinating in his home studio while solo recording 2021’s Late Night TV Gold. Bouncing back – bouncing, shimmying, rubbing, swaying – with full-band follow-up Transit Damage, he and honorary Austinite Steve Berlin of Los Lobos produced a horn-sexy hip-shaker on the order of Shinyribs peaks I Got Your Medicine (2017) and Fog & Bling (2019). Expect a veritable hootenanny on the Waterloo Records bandstand. Hallucinations optional.
