"Joy filled the whole space... A class act that adds to any occasion a touch of elegance...An atmosphere of warmth and joy, without schmaltz and loudness...It was a pleasure to have both of you in our home...Great flexibility and breadth of material...An atmosphere that encouraged friendly conversation yet captured the special nature of the day... Sounds that ebbed and flowed and seemed to reflect perfectly the mood of the party... A mood of cheerful grace and ease... Your music spoke elegantly and eloquently to the occasion. We wanted informal beauty and that is exactly what you gave us."
"Steve Tapper and Audie Bridges provide a more refined alternative...able to play anything from jazz to classical to popular."
By putting their souls in the music, (Tapper and Bridges) have made their work at bar and bat mitzvahs, weddings and social occasions as "legitimate" as the music made in nightclubs and coffeehouses. Call it real folk music.
