Real Kevin / "Sky Kiss"

  




The Skinny Review:
After listening to the new single from Real Kevin, you'll find it hard to get the song out of your head. While it may be a cover, they've added their own spin to the original. "Sky Kiss" has a big sound for the three-piece, showcasing their musical chops in a new way.

In Their Own Words:
“This song is technically a cover but interestingly, we do not know who the original artist is. An uncredited snippet appears at the end of the Bob’s Burgers episode “Bob Actually” from season 7. The song is listed as “The Runs” online which is evidently a fake band name. We heard it and started playing it at shows and it fit in our set so well that we decided to record and release it.

We’ve put some of our own touches on this song but it’s mostly a cover. The band recorded and produced the song ourselves in our basement rehearsal studio and it was a lot of fun to work on. Has a bit of that “wall-of sound” guitar that gives it a shoegaze sound with a falsetto ear worm for a chorus. We also had to come up with a way to start the song and all come in together and since we are huge fans of “Be My Baby” by The Ronettes, we decided to pay a little homage to its drum intro”
