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."
