    Be warned, Contraband has not paid any of their performers since December and has no intention of doing so. Please do not make any bookings though this company, as they are immorally booking us, knowing that they will not pay us. They owe us collectively many thousands of pounds and have no intention of paying us. They are deliberately defrauding us, and the way they are doing this is visible on the companies House website - Ivan Young, Tehilla Fratti, Maria Feliciano, Andrew Pervis - con men. Your SM is public.

    AVOID at all costs. They are nice on the phone because they are CONNING the artists and creaming extortionate commissions for their third party sales meaning the artists get a fraction of what you pay and you pay over the odds too. No transparency and outright THEFT. They don't directly represent anyone "famous/notable". They owe artists THOUSANDS and don't even have the decency to reply to anyone who has in good faith fulfilled their contracts. I believe Contraband are a court case waiting to happen. Support the performers by not trusting this agency who will not pay them in the end. DO NOT USE. They are the "entertainment agency" equivalent of Wonga.

    Terrible company, horrible treatment to customers and workers and very poor organization of events. I do not recommend at all.

    Scammers. Unreliable company and awful management, don’t trust this company, neither as a client nor as a performer. They don't pay their artist, they don't comply with their own terms.

👍👍 Noel is a STAR!!!!! A private cocktail making class was planned for my birthday weekend on the 29th Oct and Noel did not disappoint us!! We laughed, we sang and made some great cocktails. Noel was funny and well organised. A great way to celebrate an event or have fun with friends and family.
