"On Contraband Love, Williams and Campbell reaffirm what anyone who has experienced them live can attest to; that this couple has tapped into the dusky spirit of Americana in all of its forms (folk, blues, rock and roll, gospel etc.) and created a unique sound inspired by the past, that is spirited, stirring and timeless".

"In all, Campbell and Williams have created another great album of new songs that evoke the old classics of the roadways (and roadhouses) stretching along the Deep South between Nashville and New Orleans and the lesser-known, dustier trails along the way. "Americana" risks becoming a tagline for any group with a banjo and some bib overalls, but when done right and true, like here, one understands that the label is a compendium beyond its parts. The true Americana isn't a sound; it's a feeling. Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams make you feel it with every song".

"There's nothing facile or uncomplicated about the romantic interactions that former Levon Helm associates Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams sing about on their second fine roots album, Contraband Love ... Beyond vocals and lyrics, the listener can lose oneself in the rumbling flow of Campbell's guitars and a top-grade Woodstock, New York, rhythm section".
