Contraband is a revolving cast of characters coming together to make music as friends for our friends. You may recognize our members from the band Str8 Arrow. We’ve been at this music business for a minute now and find ourselves often times too busy to enjoy what we love to do. That’s about to change. For a few months each year, we’ll pull some shows together for the sake of laying it down and having fun.

Back in the 1900’s, you booked a show, slapped a few posters on telephone polls, called your friends and played the gig. In the current age of social media, things are a bit different. We’ll post updates, pictures, videos and shows here:

Feel free to add your own and share with your friends.

We bring 80’s-90’s classic country & rock performed by seasoned musicians and entertainers who are ready to get back on stage together. See y’all soon!

Just to give you a taste, here are some videos of Str8 Arrow. Representing 3/4 of Contraband…ALL members of Contraband were once members of Str8 Arrow.
