It was in the little town of Saratoga, CA. where 9 year old Neva first began playing her guitar and writing songs. Now a seasoned entertainer, her alternative pop rock style has developed strongly from a diverse upbringing and years of classical training. In the middle of her power and passion, her guitar parts tell their own story making it hard to believe that it’s all just one girl and her guitar. With “A depth that seems strange in someone who looks so young”, Neva’s universal appeal grows with every performance.
Having just released her debut album, ‘One of these Days’, Neva currently has residencies at over 15 venues throughout California and performs nightly to promote her CD.
Known as an acclaimed solo acoustic artist, Neva also leads a talented band that she tours with to represent the bold sound of her album. The catchy melody, “One of these days you’ll forget about me, forget about all the things I’ll never be” will be running through your head over and over again as you realize that Neva is wrong….. you wont forget about her.
Should Neva’s music remain in your mind for more than 4 hours, consult a physician immediately… They’ll tell you it’s normal!

Seven
Marching through in frantic strides
add up all owed to you
Confess your weary lies and tally up the truthLonely are you now....you talk still
Confessing all your weary lies
you're wearing yourself thin
Release your tension put off all your deadly sinLonely are you now...you talk still
I beg forgiveness from the God within myself
Keeping track of my confessions while practicing good health
I'd do it all for Him but it never felt the same
I try to understand but my God merely my nameRelease us from these isles
and free our conscience from all states of right and wrongUnleash us from these chains
and free our conscience from
all states of right and wrongIn hiding The Holy Spirit longs
Find my own way.....I'm solo
Find my own way...I'm so lowThey slip into a state of mind
That which their Lord they can not find
And if they sleep before they wake
They fear their themselves their soul to takeTake me out does anybody know just where I've gone
Take us out to each his own right and wrong
We lye in our stately homeFind my own way

Too Raw
You say you've found the balance
between love your work and home
What difference does it make?
Because this life is ever changing
and our balance comes in waves
So what difference does it make?For so long now...I have walked beneath your pedestal
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
You find your balance on waves
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too RandomI was in search of any answers your words were to retain
But I fear there's been a mistake
Because as much as you're admired
I've my own life to attain so really...
What difference do we make?Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
You find your balance on waves
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
Aren't we only digging up our own graves?
Too Raw - Too Rough - Too Random
You wouldn't show.....For no longer now shall I walk beneath ones pedestal
All I wanted was
to form a constitution for my piece of mind
Now I am dealing with the resolution
that what's mine in mind is only mine
And I balance this weight different all the timeAll along down this dusty road tell me what difference do we make?

Fading
How many times must I cross this path where your words just break me down
Your eyes just spin me round
And I doubt all decisions I swore I found trueYou say that she's a nice girl and I know I shouldn't care
but then you say you still love me - you'll always be there
Turn me into something - I don't even care
Turn me into anything just get me out of hereCause I'm trading all that I see
In search of a better side of meSo turn me into fire - Turn me into stone
Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's ownWhile I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
So lets get back to the point at hand you ask
Why am I bothered? Why am I sad?
You say it's my decision but what choice did I really have?
I was lost and lonely cold and tired soul was feeling badNow I'm facing all of my fears
You've moved on and I'm still right hereTurn me into fire -Turn me into stone
Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's ownWhile I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
All differences aside - Do you feel you and I
Have tried all we can try to be.....In my arms, In my arms
Still holding onto what I thought we should have been but
In my heart, In my heart
I know I know better but better doesn't know me yetSo turn me into fire - Turn me into stone
Turn me into anything so my heart beats on it's ownWhile I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
I'm fading from the falling dreams of us
I love you still but love's still not enough
I'm fading from the falling dreams of us -
The Things I'll Never Be
You may be my one and only savior
For this mending heart to learn to bend
Cause it just hurt so bad to love you like that
Knowing all along how it would endYou may be but the most biggest failure
For my will to recognize such pain
The things I saw from so far away
Were clear in sight in the middle of the day
But i didn't want to talk about those thingsAnd it showed right from the start
Never could I leave you - Never could I partOne of these days I'll forget about you
Forget about all the things you'll never do
One of these days you'll forget about me
Forget about all the things I'll never beYou may be my one and only savior
For this mending heart to learn to bend
Cause it just hurt so bad to love you like that
Just knowing all along how it would endAnd it showed right from the start
Never could I leave you - Never could I part
And I froze down to the heart
Hungry as I was I pulled myself apartAnd when I finally find a future past this fever
I'll find a few beliefs here
And once I start crying over better things than you
Well I find some hope in truthOne of these days I'll forget about you
Forget about all the things I"ll never be
On of these days you'll forget about me
Forget about the things I'll never beThe things I'll never be.....

Only in My Dreams
Vaguely I see a rain cloud moving up on me
But It's missed me by a handful of your smiles
And lately I'm seen
gliding across the waters gleam
I've never felt so warm as I do nowOnly in my Dreams
Could I ever come so close to believe
I could adore someone the way that I adore you
As real as this may seem I'm a cloud nine model dream
Cause your growing old with me
I cant wait to see you thereAnd when you hold me
Our bodies one tranquility
We're rich - we're famous
let the wild lions tame us
We're are all we could ever be
And I'll take you with me through all the worlds my soul can see
Cause you simply make everything worthwhileOnly in My Dreams
Could I ever come so close to believe
I could adore someone the way that I adore you
My soul had found it's ease
When you asked that we might please
Share these days togetherI'm singing to all the rhythms of you rhymes
Now that you're mine
We'll laugh forever - grow old together
May we always dream in color now that "We Do" -
Beautiful Lie
She's wrapped up in his arms like Sunday
So long to come yet so quick to go
And she's always waking in denial
who she's holding onto by Monday
3 villains in shining armor, 40 thieves, a fairy tale and some ghostsBeware of how he loves you
And onward stitch that tares to repair you apartHold him close, keep him close, hold him down
He's a frail one on his own though we'll never see
He goes running from you then comes running to me
and we race his beautiful lie
Falling in love, falling down,
falling short for all ways to mesmerizeBite down that which you chew
It tastes sour what's become of you
Though I know - So naive
I wanted to believe there was more to your soul
In ways I blame my morals to arise
To see just how to justify a little girl lost in a beautiful lieAll I miss our nice talks
All I wished your nice thoughtsNow I am the one who's speaking in tongues
Your world is just my type
Falling in love, falling down,
falling short for all ways to mesmerizeAll I wished was to feel you out
All I missed was love...All eyes - All lies - All eyes - All lies
Through a haze may I see
You're pulling such sad sad song from me
Though I know it's all a lie - worth a lie
Through a haze we believed
if we'd try we'd be...some a destine fault
And all the rest worth a lie(So lost in distant measures
A moral doesn't break for free
Forgive such selfish pleasures
that now sort through frail debris)
