Musically Spoken Words

Humane, furious, sexy, political, tragic and so funny that you'll laugh through your tears, Shane Koyczan is one of the world's premier spoken word performers.

With self described "Experimental Acoustic Folk" music by the Short Story Long, Shane moves from subdued, deep, sad love poetry to power chord hip-hop. He brings enormous vitality and virtuosity to every performance. His warmth, wit and sincerity are a hit with crowds and his lyricism inspires all who listen.
