Peter Nevland

“Hearing Peter Nevland perform is like taking a running leap off the rim of the Grand Canyon with your hands tied behind your back so that the only way to pull the parachute’s ripcord is with your toes.” Freed from the corporate shackles of Motorola, Peter unleashes his life with candor, hilarious wit and heart–changing passion. From the desperately comic struggles of a redhead, to connections with people at death’s door, you’ll stay glued to your seat, jaw hanging loosely, wondering how one man can remember so many words.

“It’s a wild trippin’ psycho funkedelic roller coaster ride that taps into the unexplored depths of the unknown.”, HM Magazine

“What Peter does with words is illegal in 7 states and under investigation in 17 more”, National best–selling author, Roy Williams

Spoken Groove’s Story

Spoken Groove. It’s the best way to describe the unfettered energy and rock ‘n’ roll innovation produced by Peter Nevland and virtuoso guitarist Paul Finley. “These two performers – they’re more than poets – have taken spoken word and the art of poetry slam to new heights,“ raves the Santa Fe Reporter.

Since September, 2002, Acoustic Spoken Groove has completed countless tours across the U.S., Canada, England, Germany & Australia, connecting with just about every audience imaginable. College students love the intelligent lyrics and original, explosive music. Teenagers go nuts for Peter’s funky white boy dancing and raw honesty about not fitting in. Little children love their innocently hilarious humor and crazy, wild fun. They had trouble escaping a mob of inner–city kids in Harlem who wanted them to stay forever. Adults and even senior citizens are blown away by the artistry and beauty of their stories.
