    BevisBevis Griffin: Clarity is Sublime

    About the Program:

    Preserving Mental Health (In A World Gone MAD)

    As a dual-certified peer specialist for Integral Care’s Forensic Support Team, Bevis Griffin brings a lifetime of "lived experience" to the forefront of Austin’s mental health crisis. Having transitioned from a socio-culturally significant career as a musician to a life dedicated to spiritual fulfillment through service, Griffin now provides vital support to incarcerated and unhoused individuals. In this presentation, he will explore the concept of "self-determination" as a tool for recovery and discuss how innate spiritual power can counteract the stressors of modern political and social upheaval. Drawing on his survival of Jim Crow-era trauma and personal loss, Griffin offers a profound testament to the clarity found through faith and resilience.

    About Bevis Griffin

    Bevis Griffin is an American musician, businessman, and educator recognized as a pioneer of Texas glam, punk, and hard rock. With a career debuting in 1971, he was honored by the City of Austin with a mayoral proclamation for his status as a genre-defining artist of cultural significance. His influence has been praised by industry icons, with Vernon Reid calling him a "missing link" in American music history and critic Greg Tate noting his provocative challenge to the rock status quo. In 2025, Bevis spoke to MBC about his music career and is returning to discuss our society's mental health crisis.
