After this difficult year, the Kevs wanted to hark back to a simpler age when their trousers were higher and tighter (not at the waist).

We hope you enjoy the easy stylings and louche machismo of these classics remastered for the wonderful world of Covid.

1. Tights and white satin
2. Ding dong merrily, we're high
3. Codpiece on Earth
4. Misanthropes that whine
5. Chipmunks roasting on an open fire
6. Jingly Balls
7. All I want for Christmas is Flu
8. Chasing Sars
9. Rudolph the red necked Covid-denier
10. Nobody knows the bubbles I've seen
11. Shite Christmas

Inspired by the iconic Rock Against Racism design from the 70s. We’re proud to be supporting our Food Banks’ campaign.

Proud to be part of the Lewes Food Banks record breaking collection last weekend. As it says, in the paper, almost 400 volunteers spent 36 hours collecting a record breaking 7,002 items for Lewes’ three food banks. 13 choirs, seven panto casts, six bands plus the town’s football, rugby and hockey clubs all took part. What a result ✊️

With more notice than usual and by popular demand

With more notice than usual and by popular demand our Supermarket Sweep Tour has been extended! 🪕🥁We’ll be helping support the Lewes Food Bank outside Aldi Sat 12th at 12pm.

The food bank smashed it last time with a staggering 5661 items of food and household items donated (the previous high was 4790). Let’s see if we can beat that and help get food on the table for everyone this Xmas

We’ll be dusting off the sleigh bells with our usual shambolic standards and mixing it up with some old Xmas favs like Rudolph the red nose rain deer #rocknroll 🤘

We’d like to thank Dom Cummings for his early Christmas present to the nation.

Never shy about plugging our wee vid from earlier in the year on the rooftop of @anotherfinemesh (our HQ) but it seems appropriate on this occasion. You can see the vid on the AFM website. anotherfinemesh.com/the-magnificent-kevens-hq #dominiccummings #happyxmas #byebye #dom

The Kevs never shy away from difficult topics but always handle them with sensitivity. When The Donald's advisers 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.

Out for a very wet and soggy busk in Waitrose’s trolly park for the #lewesfoodbank who were collecting for meals for school children in the holidays. Thanks everyone for making it a lot of fun despite the downpour! #wet #pantstobojo Happy birthday @marcusrashford

So there we were out busking this morning and Dom Cummings calls up and says “can you tell the people outside Aldi my side of the story...you know, about Barnham Castle, lockdown and that”. We said “like yeah, no probs Dom, we’re on it mate”. So here we are (pictured) telling the good peeps queuing how it all happened. If you missed it, don’t worry, you can catch up by watching the vid on the homepage of our website themagnificentkevens.com #judgeforyourself #500miles #DomCummings

We never like to give you much notice. However, if you are passing, we’ll be making a din at Aldi at 11am this morning in support of the Lewes Food bank. Come and make a donation and help fill those trollies, any help will be greatly appreciated! x😎✊️

7 extraordinary days on the road with #lightshipgreta
An abundance of highs and lows. 12 -15 miles a day on average. It was hard and wonderful beyond belief. Pushing/pulling/drumming with this phenomenal bunch of humans has been an immense privilege. Every one of them took holiday from their jobs or studies to make this happen. We went through some pretty cold hearted places and some extraordinarily warm and welcoming places. The met police used intimidation and bullying tactics despite our protest being legal and authorised. On Thursday they delayed us by 2 hours so by dusk we were 3 miles off our destination. It was raining, getting dark, halfway up a hill with police vans tailing us. If we stopped anywhere without permission it would be game over and it was too dangerous continue in the dark. We pulled in to a driveway to discuss options.. The driveway belonged to a travellers community who welcomed us with open arms.
Next day we came through south London and the reception just got warmer and warmer. Thankyou Brixton, your welcome was The Best!! The euphoria of reaching London was immense

We’re reposting and supporting @lucyogdenceramic

We’re reposting and supporting @lucyogdenceramics and the XR team that are bravely pulling/pushing ‘Greta’ (the lighthouse ship) from Brighton to London to help raise awareness and press our government into waking up and taking action. The team are covering a hard 7-10 miles a day with a large structure with tiny wheels. The footage looks biblical. The following is from Lucy’s post:
・・・
The climate crisis hasn't gone away, the outlook hasn't improved. I think we're all aware of this but the immediate horrors so many have to cope with, the pandemic and the utter balls up the government has made of dealing with it, the ongoing murderous atrocities we see against black people in USA which has awakened our understanding of the injustices and systemic racism that exists here, and there is much else to be focused on, that Must be focused on, that diverts us from the biggest crisis of all. Humanity has never faced what we are facing now. As @david_attenborough said "Never before have we had such an awareness of what we are doing to the planet and never before have we had the power to do something about that."
It's overwhelming beyond belief. For me, when I feel hopeless and helpless I have found action is the way through. So I joined @extinctionrebellionbrighton samba band (literally, they'll take anyone 🤣🥁🤣) and I'm walking/pushing/pulling @lightshipgreta from Brighton to London and banging my newly decorated drum along the way. Many many people have suggested it and I am mad but the way I see it, it is a beautiful analogy. Greta the lightship will be sounding the alarm, reminding people of the need to get our government and world leaders to make the changes that only they can in order to minimise the damage to our children's and grandchildren's future. She (the lightship) is Big and Heavy, it will be hard, maybe we won't succeed but the crisis we are facing will be far far harder.
Greta's journey starts tomorrow with a procession in Brighton where there will be a day of protest and raising of awareness with @officialbrightonblm
Come and see us and find out more (we leave pavillion gardens at 12 noon)
Then we set sail from Brighton on Sunday (metaphorically,

Musical fame and misdemeanours often go hand in hand. The Kevs along with other Rock’n’Roll royalty raised their own slice of hell and had their collars felt by the law. Rumours circulate that an extended stay at Her Majesty's pleasure, and various institutions, helps explain their extended break from the charts from 1964 until now. Critics however are quick to point to The Kevs’ musical #ineptitude and inability to actually record anything as a more probable cause. #rocknrollroyalty #rocknrollhalloffame #wallofshame #mugshots #shouldknowbetter

We’ll be #busking outside TESCO on Saturday (not Waitrose) to help the food bank with their appeal to feed school children over the summer holidays.

Don’t shop at Tesco? Come on down anyway with a donation (if you can) and enjoy the din!

The food bank are looking for healthy option foods for the children, so things like savoury crackers, dried fruit packs, mini raisins and juice in cartons (not from fridge). Please bring what you can.

We’re on at 11am. Should be fun! We hope to see you there 🤘😎x
