Stefani is the most incredible vocalist I have ever heard! It was such a pleasure to have her and Contraband perform at my 60th Birthday Bash! You will never find a band with as much versatility and eagerness to please! The dance floor was packed all evening and everyone was begging for more at the end!
Give her a call…you’ll be glad you did! - Barry Corbin
Stefani shared her powerful gift of voice at our wedding reception years ago, and was among the highlights of the evening. We are still celebrating our marriage, and the beautiful people who helped us celebrate our big night many moons ago!
Thank you, Stefani for your inspiring presence. Hearing your voice for the first time on stage at Johnnie High Country Music Revue in the late 90's gave me chills. Pitch perfect, powerful, gifted and with passion.
Stefani, we wish you the best in everything, and pray 'your song will always be sung'! - Jamie Adams
To Everyone considering hiring Stefani & The Contraband,
STAY AWAY…From work, home, jail, or whatever might stop you from hearing all performances by Stefani and the Contraband.
From a "first call" side mans view of working with Stefani over the last 13+ years, I can tell you that I always look forward to each and every performance date I have booked with her. Everything is always top notch and professionally administered right down to the little details.
Stefani & Jeff strive for excellence regardless of how large or small each occasion is, and from a musicians standpoint that is incredible to say the least.
So, yes, book Stefani and Contraband for you event as quickly as possible! - Ron Jones
I was honored to have Stefani sing at my wedding ceremony a few years ago. My wedding guests were literally blown away by this gifted performer. Stefani’s performance of AT LAST was even better than the beloved Etta James who originally performed the song.
Stefani is a multi-talented artist, whose vocal range simply stated is amazing. I originally met and saw Stefani perform at the Johnnie High Music Revue in Arlington, TX over 13 years ago through our mutual friend, LeAnn Rimes.
Stefani has performed at many of the top venues around Dallas and sung the National Anthem at all the top sporting events in the Metroplex.
If you are looking for THE WEDDING SINGER for your event look no further, you have just found the most talented lady in Texas to make your wedding the most memorable event ever.
Stefani's band, Contraband is one of the top wedding and corporate performance acts in town. Book early, the band's schedule fills up fast with the top events of the season giving you an unforgettable experience. - Sharon H
Stefani and Jeff took care of all the entertainment for my sweet sixteen birthday party at Paradise Cove Grapevine and everyone was completely blown away!
Not only is Stefani an amazing performer, but she and Jeff can get people out on the dance floor and keep them there all night!
I can’t thank them enough for making my party the best ever! - Cori R
Contraband was the star attraction at our wedding. I am so glad we were able to book them! They were simply amazing…from dinner music to the best dance music…they not only had such a variety of music, but they sound better than the actual recording artists! They were even taking requests from the audience!
When the band took a break, Jeff and Stefani were the best DJs by playing the latest dance hits that kept our guests dancing, laughing and having an incredible time!
The best part of it all is that I didn’t have to worry about anything! Stefani and Jeff coordinated with the venue manager and our wedding planner to customize their show to fit exactly what I wanted at my wedding. They even learned our favorite song for our first dance. It was absolutely perfect!
If you have the perfect dress, the perfect cake, the perfect venue…all you need is the perfect - Shannon
Contraband is a phenomenal group with awesome talent. Stefani’s vocals are amazing and, together with the musicians, this band is a perfect fit at any event. They’re professional, fun, and great people to perform at any event! - Tammy Hanson
Robbie and I cannot say enough great things about Contraband. I have known Stefani for years, and she is one of the most talented vocalists I have EVER met. She can sing anything from Aretha Franklin to Katy Perry or even James Brown. No matter what you want to hear, Contraband sounds amazing performing it! They are unbelievably well-rounded in every way. What we loved most about them, is the fact that you can tell they all love what they do and are determined to make sure everyone, no matter what age, has a great time. At our wedding, there was not a single person sitting down the entire evening!
Stefani’s husband, Jeff, is the DJ and coordinator of everything. He is so wonderful to work with and wants everything to go just as you envision it! He was involved from the very beginning attending meetings with the Venue, talking with the Venue coordinator, working with our wedding planner and emailing and texting several times a week to make sure they were ready and everything ran perfectly!
Because it rained the day of our wedding, we had to move the ceremony inside causing us to have to move the band to a different location within the reception area. We had to move them to a much smaller area, which was not conducive for any band; but Jeff figured it out and made it look and sound perfect! What should have been stressful was not at all. Jeff arrived at the venue at 10 am Saturday morning to set up and make sure everything was to my liking as far as sound, lights, setup and everything. At the end of the wedding reception, we even had the photographers and videographers telling us how much fun the reception was!
I cannot stress enough not only how musically inclined Stefani and the band are, but how wonderful they are to work with. I could honestly go on and on, but I truly believe there is not another band out there that can top Contraband! Contraband was a HUGE reason our special day was absolutely perfect! Robbie and I can’t thank everyone enough! We love you guys! - Lauren
It has been a pleasure to work with you all. We have planned events with Contraband going on 7 years now. You are always prepared, are true professionals, and the performances are outstanding…from vocals, musicians, lights, and sound. The variety of music is great for all types of events and it is amazing how you can customize a show for every event. We will be hiring you for all our upcoming events.
Again, thanks for everything! - David C
Wow, What a Voice! Simply Amazing! - Terry Bradshaw
I wanted to thank you for the terrific music and entertainment Contraband gave us at my reception.
Your voice is one of the best I have every heard and the rest of the band is so talented as well. Everyone has told me how much they enjoyed it.
I will definitely be recommending you to all my friends! - Margaret
I cannot recommend Stefani Little and The Contraband enough. As a wedding planner I’ve worked with my share of bands and DJs and no one matches up to the professionalism, enthusiasm, or talent of Contraband.
Not only do they sound great and clearly love what they do, but they’ll definitely get your guests moving on the dance floor.
If you’re getting married or you’re a vendor, this is who you want to work with!
They truly care about each unique couple and it’s demonstrated in their work and performance. - Julie
