In addition, Mr. Maglio has been busy performing Sinatra's favorite tunes for over a decade.

His long-running nightclub act "Sounds of Sinatra" is a must-go for all Sinatra fans. Accompanied by the world-renowned 11-piece Stan Rubin Orchestra, Mr. Maglio sings two swingin' shows every Saturday evening, "Sinatra: Remembering The Sands" at 8:30PM, followed by "Sinatra Songs" at 10:30PM. Both shows are housed at the famed Carnegie Club, located in the heart of midtown Manhattan, 156 West 56th Street, New York, NY.

Many noteworthy personalities have commented about Steven Maglio's distinctive vocal gift.

Actor Tony Danza recently remarked, "I like Steven's singing because he pays attention to those minor details that make a song popular, and the puts those details into his own renditions. That's one of the marks of a great singer."

Michael Dale of Broadwayworld.com noted, "What's most impressive about Steven Maglio is that even while tributing a singer he so obviously admires, he manages to make the evening his own. You may walk in because of Frank Sinatra, but you'll leave with an appreciation for a terrific entertainer named Steven Maglio."

Donald Trump praised Steven after he performed at Trump National Golf Club saying, "My wife and I were very impressed with his talent. I just booked him for two more shows."

Sidney Zion, New York Daily News columnist and friend of Frank Sinatra reported, "If Frank Sinatra could have seen the show you just did, you would be the one he'd choose to continue singing his songs."
