The Kevs never shy away from difficult topics but always handle them with sensitivity. When Donald Trump’s advisors were wondering how best to break the news of his election defeat, we were of course happy to answer the call with our customary tact.

Live Aid: hello Wembley!

The Kevs have always understood the importance of charity work. Especially since Elton and Bono told us it was the only way to get a knighthood. Our charity work is always low-key. We only play small intimate fundraisers along with our closest friends. For reasons we can’t understand, the Palace has not yet been in touch.

The Kevs said ‘Thank you for the music’ after what Benny thought was an autograph request led them to signing away the rights to a song.
