Real Alligator is the 2026 release from Shinyribs, the Austin-based project led by Kevin Russell, who is known for blending Texas roots music with a loose, good-humored spirit. It arrives on Spaceflight Records and draws on rock, soul, funk, blues, folk, and country, all filtered through the band's easygoing Southern swagger.
The songs wander from Arkansas mud to Matagorda Bay to a backpack left behind in San Marcos, with a strong sense of place and a wry, storytelling sensibility. Tracks like "Good To Be Human" and "Pinecone Steppin'" show off the band's groove-minded playfulness, while the album as a whole balances warmth, humor, and a little bit of weirdness.
