(Austin, TX )  Renowned indie rock band Kev Bev is set to unveil their latest musical masterpiece, a sophisticated, and groove-laden rock song titled “History Books.” The new single is a thought-provoking journey inspired by the untold stories hidden within the folds of history. It is due out on March 8th, 2024, and will be available everywhere music is streamed.

Kevin “Kev Bev” Collins, the driving force behind Kev Bev, was inspired by The History Channel’s Tulsa Burning: The 1921 Race Massacre documentary. Compelled by his already existing frustrations and curiosity, Kevin conducted extensive research into historical discrepancies and omissions. This newfound obsession laid the groundwork for the band’s upcoming album, with “History Books” as the first single.

Empowered to tell this story, he started writing the song “History Books.” The title draws awareness to the ongoing practice of re-writing history. Kevin explains, “The History Books title was also inspired by the many historic documents that were burned, changed, and banned over time. To me, “History Books” also includes memoirs of voices and perspectives that were there and lived those experiences. Many of them are being challenged and banned today.”

The song will be accompanied by a visually stunning music video that was fueled by the City of Austin Live Music Fund Grant. In collaboration with choreographer and assistant director Hassan Christopher, the music video captures the essence of the song while set against the backdrop of Austin’s iconic and historic locations, libraries, and murals.
