Deja Blue Band: Philadelphia’s Most Versatile Band
Chris Louie and Kevin Burns are career musicians who have been playing music together for over 25 years. They started out playing concerts for fundraisers in high school and haven’t stopped since. Both Chris and Kevin helped pay their way through college by playing in bands together, and after college took to the road to pursue music full-time. Their travels took them from Toronto to Memphis with many stops in-between.
In 1998, they were founding members of the band Chorduroy that played the tri-state area doing clubs, weddings, private and corporate functions. Chorduroy won Best Band in Delaware in 2000 (Delaware Today Magazine). In 2008, Chris and Kevin started Element K and in their first year in business won Best Band in Delaware (Delaware Today Magazine).
Chris and Kevin have been very busy the past few years as stay at home fathers to their growing families while burning the candle at both ends and still playing music at night. Having always wanted to perform in a private party and wedding-specific band, Kevin and Chris helped to construct just that. Deja Blue is the result of a vision of hand-picked musicians helping to deliver the versatility, professionalism, and enjoyment that every event deserves.
Chris and Kevin take pride in their ability to provide you with a truly customized event with the utmost attention to detail. Our extensive experience with live performance has helped us develop the knowledge and ability to keep the dance floor moving by playing the appropriate music with smooth transitions. To keep the event running seamlessly, we are in contact with our clients in order to maintain timelines, take requests, and make adjustments. We look forward to providing our customers with exceptional service and professionalism.
The guys were AWESOME!! EVERYONE LOVED them! And, several people at the party asked for their contact info so they could use them in the future -- including a young mom in our family who asked about them for her son's 3rd bday party next year in July. Brayden, the 2 year old, sat in a chair staring at them and danced in front of them and every time they guys took a break to get some water (it was brutally hot!) he would follow them and ask, "More, please!" :-) It was a riot. The age range of the party was 2 months old to 85 years old and everyone in between -- all loved them!! We have a huge yard here and have many big bbq/pool parties during the summer months, so will definitely be thinking of you all again sometime!
Thank you, again! The duo was a hit!
