Deja Blues has been playing around the Central Valley for over 8 years.  Formed out of the want to play blues songs we really enjoy.  We believe that if we play songs we love, that feeling will be passed onto our audience where they will join right into the fun. Every now and then a group of musicians get together that really make something special and this is just that.  With some member changes along the road, its staple has been that of Jim “Gumbo” Furnas on guitar & vocals and Don Heflin on     bass & vocals. Opening for many great blues artist along the way, like Sonny Rhoads, Ron Thompson, Rod Piazza,
Little Charlie, Tommy Castro just to name a few . Now with Rich Graham, (original keyboardist for Hwy 61) and Don “Squeek” Clarey (drummer of The Groove Mercenaries) on board, there is a new sense of feel and groove we are sure you will enjoy.
