High-spin states in {sup 130}Nd were populated in the reaction {sup 94}Mo({sup 40}Ca,2p2n) at a beam energy of 180 MeV. The ground-state band has been extended to I{sup {pi}}=(32{sup +}) and three side bands were observed for the first time. In addition, a weak band with a large dynamical moment of inertia was found. The moment of inertia of this sequence is similar to those of structures found to be highly deformed in heavier even-even Nd nuclei.
