  • Bio

    .......... Proprietor of the event production company KARMIC FOUNDATION and offshoot TOM HARVEY GRAPHIC DESIGN. I have DJed in many "guest" spots in most major clubs in New Orleans from '95 to present. I held a 4 year residency at the infamous Audubon Hotel during its time. Also a seasonal residency at TwiRoPa with Reniassance Records. I have Promoted, Produced & DJed a couple dozen events in New Orleans ranging in size from 150 - 4,500 party-goers. Possibly the most notable was the FLESH ART SHOW at One Eyed Jacks just before the storms, or maybe the KARMA parties at the now demolished Pickery on Orange and Tchoupatoulas. I've also played many private & secret Mardi Gras Balls/Parties.....I have enjoyed DJing at (In New Orleans) the STATE PALACE THEATER, 735 CLUB, WHISKEY BAR, former AUDUBON HOTEL, TWI-RO-PA, AMPERSAND, ONE EYED JACKS, CAFE BRASIL, THE PICKERY, CONTEMPORARY ART CENTER, DRAGON'S DEN, THE BLUE NILE, HANDSOME WILLY'S, THE COUNTRY CLUB & MANY SMALLER VENUES / Bars / nightclubs.... not to mention all the balconies, patios and pool parties during festival season (that's year-round isn't it?!) just because that's how we do! .... I moved to New Orleans from San Francisco in 1995, having lived in the bay area during the explosive underground dance scene of the early 90s. I found the music that really 'sent me' first in Chicago at the tail end of the 80s (I was almost legal... yeah right). I love mixing multi-media art exhibits with live performances, set in an interactive atmosphere. I'm also a previous percussionist for NOOMOON TRIBE (Katrina & Rita put that on hold and I hope to resume) and part-time drummer with WORMS UNION. I evacuated to Atlanta and have just returned on a more permanent basis to New Orleans. While in Atlanta, besides stuggling to start all over again, I DJed at THE ROYAL, THE MASQUERADE, THE MARK & THE FIVE SPOT (the latter a show I produced with bellydancers and live percussionists) I feel it might be kind of 'show-offy' to list the DJs I've been on the bill with, but I have Djed along side some the world's top DJs and I feel fortunate to have had those experiences. I might list them on myspace someday. It's good to be home and I have some parties up my sleeve! .... I've also had the great privilege to play VOODOO MUSIC FEST for 6 of the 10 years running (that number includes the up and coming event) Mostly as a percussionist for NOOMOON TRIBE and more recently doing my DJ thang. I've started to accompany other live DJs with my drumming as well as the many bands I've played with over the years. I just want to mention Saucer Seed as one of the favorites. They are now called Hands Of Nero. But of course, NOOMOON TRIBE is my clan without a doubt!.. www.myspace.com/tomharveydj • www.F A C E B O O K.com/djtomharvey ....
