Peter Novelli

Guitarist / singer / songwriter Peter Novelli http://peternovelli.com/ is based in New Orleans. Critics have described the sound of Peter Novelli Band as “a potent combination of New Orleans street rhythms, swampy backbeats, jazzy infusions, and a most sincere and innovative approach to the blues,” and “from slinky zydeco two-steps to stinging blues rock, from winking swamp-boogie to angular Crescent City grooves.”

Novelli’s songwriting has been compared to John Hiatt and Delbert McClinton. Blues Revue said “his blues are sophisticated and creative in a way that so few blues CDs are today. He deserves attention as one of the best storytellers in the blues today.”
