"I have known Steve for many years now, first as his teacher then as a contemporary in the drum world. With his determination and skills I knew he would be a successful musician in his ongoing path. With his Respectful Beats business he has created an amazing and worthwhile enterprise. I have the highest respect for this man, and with his ability to reach people he has created a very important musical statement."

"We had Steve for our Memory Cafe, everyone had a great time! It was nice to look around the room and see everyone participating and smiling because they were having such a great time. Steve demonstrated the basics of drumming and lead us on a musical adventure. Steve brought us for a trip down memory lane with his music selection. Would definitely have him again!"

"We had the pleasure of Steve performing for a lunchtime Memory Cafe at the Sudbury Senior Center yesterday and he did an awesome job. There were over 20 attending and he had them drumming, singing and even dancing toward the end of his performance. His interactive style really made the difference."

"Steve is new to our facility. He has been Performing the Drumming Circle for the past three months. The residents really enjoy his programs. They asked me to invite him back again. Steve is very friendly, outgoing and has a lot of patients. I recommend that you should try a drum event with Respectful Beats."
