Part hard rock, part gothic, part industrial, all original... Deja Vudoo is a female-fronted band from Harrisburg, PA, whose music projects a raw and infectious energy that takes first-time listeners by surprise.
Deja Vudoo's music is heavy and eclectic, the lyrics are insightful and often graphic, speaking of the horrors of the human animal.
Reuniting four musicians who parted company once before, Deja Vudoo is their new vision. With the addition of the fifth member on keys, their sound began to evolve, giving their hard rock sound the gothic and industrial edge you now hear. Destined to be among the greatest undiscovered bands of this age, Deja Vudoo is ready to take their rightful place in the Central PA music scene.
Deja Vudoo was proud and honored to work with producer, Jason Rubal, at Seventh Wave Studio to record their debut full length album, Scratching The Surface.
Deja Vudoo was recently voted Best New Band in the Central PA Music Awards, presented by HBG Online. Thank you to everyone who helped make this award possible.

What people are saying about us and Scratching The Surface...
* Sherri Mullen - RockDiva & SugarDaddy Publishing - "Passionate/powerful vocals, clever lyrics, intricate harmonies, and brilliant musical arrangements, make this is one of the finest debut albums I have ever heard!! Deja Vudoo...your time is NOW!!"* JP the Professor of Q94 FM in Altoona, PA - "After several formative years as an acoustic-geared act, Harrisburg’s Deja Vudoo came together into a full rock band entity that reunited several musicians from a past project. The group’s first full-length CD, Scratching the Surface, offers a powerful introduction to their unique sound and musical vision. The prominent flavor is hard, female-fronted modern rock blended with slight gothic and techno flourishes, often incorporating dark themes and religious innuendo. The group’s centerpiece, charismatic singer Tina Marie, belts out a potent, rangeful voice as she toes the fine line between sanity and insanity, and explores the dark crevices of her heart and soul. Tina is often backed by a wall of metallic sound, defined by battering ram beats and tribal-geared rhythms from drummer Tony Pichler, weighty and taut bass lines from Michael Alan, and rigid riffage from guitarist Michael Nott; fleshed out and colored by Anthony Reigle’s additional guitar and keyboard fills. Out of a twisted church choir-like intro, the thunderous “Your God†sets the album’s dark and disquieting tone; with Tina brazenly challenging the validity of a higher power. She questions her own reality on “Real to Me,†and teeters between salvation and damnation on the volatile “Making Angels Cry.†Other tracks find Tina pondering issues about her mind and soul, such as the edgy “Dreamin,’†the sullen “Numb†(featuring guest cellist Ajay Cheney) and “Scapegoat;†while spirits, souls and wills struggle for control in the lyrics of songs like “Whisper,†the acidic and industrial “Revenge,†the concussive title track “Scratching the Surface†and “Piece by Piece,†and “Immortal.†The album is mostly cohesive and flows along consistently, with the sole exception of the keyboard-underscored rocker “Addicted,†which sounds more upbeat and out of place in the context of the rest of the album. Produced, recorded, mixed and engineered by Jason Rubal and recorded at Seventh Wave Studio in Harrisburg, the album is cleverly crafted and arranged; utilizing vocal layering and harmonies, and timely digital effects and samples to enhance the songs’ tension, release and turbulent mood swings. While the mix is often busy, it’s balanced and clear, with everything distinct and audible. Deja Vudoo’s Scratching the Surface is a bold, dynamic and focused debut that provides a compelling, action-packed listen."
* "Crazy John" for HBG Online - "...Deja Vudoo’s sound is an original mixture of hard rock, gothic, and industrial music, that projects a raw aggressive energy that reaches out and grabs you in it’s talons. It is a heavy while insightful album that delves into the soul of man. If you like passionate, and powerful music pick up this debut album."
* Jason Rubal, Producer - Seventh Wave Studio - "...let me say that every moment with all of you was an absolute pleasure. I will work with any of you on any project at any time."
* Paul Autry (Spotlight) for Gothic Goddess Media - "Deja Vudoo's current release, 'Scratching The Surface', is an exceptionally strong album that's a combination of heavy rock, gothic and industrial and...ah, forget the reviews...just give it a listen and I guarantee it will blow you away. This has my vote for album of the year, it's as simple as that. No matter what people, myself included, will say about this album, it won't do it justice. The only way you will really appreciate just how good this release really is...you have to hear it for yourself, man. You have to feel this release and, believe me, feel it you will. One listen and it will become part of your soul. Seriously, it's that damn good. It's a really well thought out release."
* m3rcury of Morbid Soul.com - "I saw these guys... and I was... blown away. Rock, metal, alternative with a dark gothic undertone, Deja Vudoo mix it all together and take you on one hell of a ride. Tina Marie''s vocals are absolutely haunting and powerful at the same time, while the rest of the band was simultaneously amusing and perfect. The band is the perfect combination of thundering heaviness and eerie beauty that you just have to hear it to understand."
* Rachel Rocks of the PA Musician Magazine (in the July '07 issue) - "Deja Vudoo really amazed me. Tina Marie's voice is amazing and all the guys back her up magnificently... These guys just went crazy from one song to the next. They really had me amazed by their original talent."
