US-based reggae/EDM artist Kēvens is set to captivate audiences with his new album “Call to Balance,” released today (October 11th) via KTF Music. This project signifies not just a musical milestone but a heartfelt message inspired by legendary icons like Bob Marley.

Kēvens reflects on his profound connection to Marley’s music, describing the electrifying experience of hearing it for the first time: “It was like something ran through my entire body, unexplainable. I was at first a bit confused because it came without warning. I found myself replaying this music over and over because it was a sudden injection, but this was medicine to make me a better person.”

In a memorable encounter with Marley’s mother, Cedella Booker, Kēvens received invaluable guidance: “Write a song like you would be writing a letter, with melody and message.” This wisdom resonates throughout his new work, which aims to foster connection and healing.

Kēvens’ passion for music is deeply intertwined with his commitment to social messages, especially those stemming from historical moments like Zimbabwe’s independence, where Marley’s music echoed hope and unity. “Zimbabwe’s independence was a testament to his love for his own brothers and sisters, and more so, the opportunity to share his message with the world,” he explains.

Join Kēvens on this transformative journey as he shares “Call to Balance,” beginning with its lead single “This Is Love.” Discover the rhythm, the message, and the heart that define his artistry.
