Artists have come from all over the United States and elsewhere specifically to work with Steffen, including Northern and Southern California, Nevada, Arizona, Oregon, Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, South Carolina, The Hawaiian Islands and as far away as Australia!
"Anytime I can hear you play is a treat for me. Kimber and I talk about what a wonderful artist you really are and we're very proud to know you. We both agree we think you are the best keyboard player we have ever heard!"
--Ted Mattingly, singer
"Steffen Presley is the best piano player in California"
--Dito Godwin, platinum record producer (No Doubt, Kiss, etc.)
"Steffen Presley was on keyboards, and he is one of the great players out there."
--Jack Casady, legendary "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" bass player, in a direct quote from an interview in the April 2004 issue of Hittin' The Note magazine concerning his recent solo CD release, Dream Factor, in which Steffen played Hammond organ and piano on most of the record in conjunction with an all-star line-up.
"Steffen was a gold mine of a find for me!"
--Jack Casady, (Jefferson Airplane; Jefferson Starship; Hot Tuna; Jimi Hendrix, ect.) in onstage quote to audience
"Steffen Presley is one of the key ingredients to our success. Without his encyclopedia knowledge of music, his creative capacity to improvise in all styles of music and ability to play the piano, keyboards, saxophone, electric guitar, bass and drums at an absolute bravura level, without his meticulous attention to details, good taste in engineering, both his long lasting patience and never flagging energy, our quick success certainly would have taken a lot longer and been a lot harder."
--- Larry Larson, manager for Kiki Kalor
"In twenty years of recording experience, this is the most fun I've ever had in a studio. The vibe is quite relaxing and inspiring. The quality is phenomenal!"
--- pianist Robin Bealmear, 2006
