Feedback
- Stephen was able to fulfill a dying wish for a patient. It was a wonderful experience for our patient and family. We would use him again! -- Colleen Z, Wyndmoor, PA, 5/9/2009
- Stephen Kleiman gave our Community (a Senior Living Community) a fabulous performance. He arrived a little early and was ready start at 7 p.m. sharp. He dressed like the old-time bango player with a red-striped shirt, vest and hat. He is a friendly, very interactive performer. He went around the whole room and played special requests at each table. This enabled the visually and hearing impaired residents to actually see the musician and hear the music. The Community was buzzing the next day with everyone talking about the evening. We highly recommend this performer for any senior living environment such as assisted living and skilled nursing. -- Diane M, Newark, DE, 11/14/2008
- Stephen added a beautiful touch to my daughters wedding day.
He plays the guitar beautifully. -- Joanne P, Philadelphia, PA, 9/2/2007
