ABOUT (THE KEVS)

The Magnificent Kevens Walkabout Festival Band image

Marauding mayhem and masters of pop-up tomfoolery!

The Kevs are a shameless busking troupe and walk about band. We pride ourselves on the fact that we can pop up and ambush an audience and play a gig almost anywhere.

We’ve built a bit of a niche for ourselves roaming festival sites and playing anywhere from the car park to the cocktail bar – you might even catch us playing a gig at the showers if you’re lucky!

You’ll never see us on a stage, we love to play amongst an audience for the best reactions.

We guarantee bringing a smile to peoples’ faces (of all ages) and offer a set packed with fun, mischief, funky dancing, a head banging competition and a full on sing-along-athon.

We also like to take our mischief and mayhem to the occasional wedding, birthday party, brewery, beer festival, wine festival, in fact almost anywhere we can sniff out some fun.

UPLIFT & UPCYCLE

We can trace The Magnificent Kevens back to a skip, our battered instruments have played many tunes. Under our shambolic appearance there belies many stories (Click here to read our Fake news).

While spreading the joy, we like to leave nothing to waste and reuse and upcycle almost everything that we can. See our Kevmobile, a purpose-built, battery-powered festival trike built by genius inventor Mike Patterson. Who needs a stage when you’ve got a rig like this!

We like to think our footprint is low but our impact is high!
