About Us

 

The Decades Disc Jockey team began entertaining in December of 1992. Our very first event was a Corporate Christmas Party at the Doubletree Hotel in Metairie. We first met with our client to understand what age groups, number of guest, special music selections, along with additional information to help prepare before the event.  With a wide selection of music and paying close attention to the mood of the group, made this party a true hit!

They had a blast, and we officially became:

 

 

  DECADES MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT

 

 

 

Since then, Decades has become well known to many hotels, country clubs, parks, and others as the Premier Disc Jockey and Live Entertainment Services for the Greater New Orleans area.
