Deja Blu plays a brand of blues that sits loosely under
the heading of 'Electric Gospel Blues' and could even be categorised as a
fusion of 'New
Orleans' and 'Chicago Blues' . . . .
huh ???? !!
Influences include
Walter Trout, Allman Brothers, Taj Mahal, Keb Mo,
Colosseum, Matt Schofield Trio, Boneshakers
Little Feat, Steve Miller – if that’s a better guide !
Dynamics in the execution of their music as well as the
repertoire mix are what the band aims for and, along with a great appreciation
of harmony, there’s good humour, an easy
synergy and a real enjoyment for what they do.
Deja Blu is a relatively new project and brings together the
combination of a guitar and keyboard partnership from the Zimbabwean Blues
scene and a solid and reliable Australian rhythm section, fronted by what must
surely be one of the most dynamic voices in Perth
today !!
Deja Blu consists of:
- Tom Jennis – Lead Vocal
- Dennis Thal – Guitar
- Geoff Sedgwick – Keyboards
- Gary Lowe – Bass
- Vince De Luca – Drums
