Deborah and her band were absolutely fantastic. Deborah personally arranged one of our dances for our wedding and we heard multiple rave reviews from our guests. I do not regret at all hiring Deborah and her band for my wedding. Her music and style made the event perfect. She is very very very very easy to deal with and listens! This is worth its weight in gold when dealing with a multitude of wedding vendors (of which, I wished more were like her). Very talented group and very professional!
Deborah Stafford is one of the Best Jazz, Blues & Big Band Singers around! She has opened for national acts, is included in the Women of Jazz AND Women in the Blues Showcases and performs with her various groups all over Colorado. Her Big Band opened for The Glenn Miller Orchestra this year and was chosen to go to the Havana Jazz Festival last time. Her Blues band went to Memphis this year to represent Mile High Blues Society at the International Blues Challenge, got a nod for best CD and were nominated for Favorite Band by Colorado Blues Society Members. They just opened for Buddy Guy when he came through town! She is having a very good year. You can hire Deborah in a variety of configurations.
