Shinyribs defies genres as a sonic melting pot of Texas Blues, New Orleans R&B funk, horn-driven Memphis Soul, country twang, border music, big band swing, and roots-rock.

Led by Kevin Russell, the charismatic frontman with colorful suits and extravagant shoes who continuously swaps out an electric guitar for a ukulele and never falls short of creating a cinematic experience with on-stage antics that often include him donning a light-up cloak or leading a conga line through the crowd. Whether it's with a full ensemble, a scaled down band, or an intimate acoustic show, Kevin Russell's presence is nothing short of commanding and powerful.

Shinyribs puts on one of THE best live performances around, they stay busy in clubs and theaters all year and have played multiple festivals such as Merlefest, Skunk Fest, Redwood Ramble, High Sierra, DelFest, Chenango Blues Fest, Pagosa Folk & Bluegrass Fest, ACL Fest, Palisade Bluegrass & Roots Fest, Hogs For A Cause, Telluride Blues N Brews, Sandy Beaches Blues Cruise, Treefort Music Fest, Blind Willie McTell Fest, Outlaw Country Cruise.

Gunhild Carling is Sweden’s Queen of Swing, Jazz, and Vaudeville — a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and entertainer who has captivated audiences on every continent.

Born into the legendary Carling Family musical dynasty, Gunhild Carling picked up her first instrument before she could walk and has never stopped playing since.

Her electrifying performances with Postmodern Jukebox introduced her to millions, while her residencies at Birdland in New York City cemented her reputation among the jazz elite.

She has toured with the legendary Count Basie Orchestra under the direction of Scotty Barnhart, performed at the world’s most prestigious jazz festivals, and brought her unique brand of swing and vaudeville to stages from Carnegie Hall to the streets of New Orleans. Whether she’s leading her own big band, performing an intimate club set, or dazzling a festival crowd of thousands, Gunhild Carling delivers an experience that is utterly unforgettable.
