I was lucky enough to be part of the team at Porirua Elim Christian Centre where Steve and Molly performed last (Sunday) night. I would just like to say that I admire both of your talents and how much soul is put in to your music. I was especially touched by Molly's song "Generations" - the style and lyrics of the song were so beautiful and unique. I wish you many blessings for the path you are taken on and can't wait to see your songs hit the charts. Love from a very proud New Zealander! Ha ha - Frances xx
It's the day of Penticost 2010! And today I discovered this site of yours and you videos on YouTube. It is a wonderful gift to be able to share your songs with others. I remember the wonderful times we shared in Goulburn years ago and am so glad you well & are touring again. Bless you and all your family.
So glad to hear you are back in the Land of the Long White Cloud. Welook forward to seeing you in Wanganui. Blessings to you and your family. Blessings from Colleen, Robert, Justice, Guardian and Daimond. Fans from Wanganui Central Point, Christian Outreach Centre. Arohanui.
Kia Ora! Just downloaded "It's Inevitable" from iTunes and thought I'd see what you were up to. Still loving your music from years back listening to it at home (Dad's cds!) Maybe you still remember him do the sound for you out at some A&P show or something in Southland - Ian Wallace that is. He's still a big fan, and so am I!! Bless you!
I first watched a video of you on the Australian Christian channel a few years ago and it left a great impression I'm hoping you would convert it to dvd. God bless you and your family as you tour around the country and looking out for you to come to Melbourne one day . cheers
Tena korua! It's great to hear that you're still recording and touring.Can't wait for the next cd and concert.A big fan of your's from the band Butler.God bless you both and your family.Arohanui,Makiha & Cathy..

Hi Steve. We 'met' in 96 at the Greenbelt festival in the UK. I'm still playing 'No Turning Back' and still loving it. Wondering if there are any plans to come to the UK in the near future, and if so, would that include a trip to Scotland?
Glad to hear you've recovered from the crash. Lord bless you and keep you and yours.
Mike
Hi Steve and Family
Hope you guys are well? Graham and I are thinking of you today and how your presence and music encouraged us last year!
We just got on to Molly's My space and saw you and her singing "SongBird" Wow! Wow! It was awesome we love that song and Molly did so well and of course you too Steve - she hit those notes amazingly - It's a special song to us as it was the song we chose to waltz to at our Wedding Dance. We have downloaded the video so we can enjoy again!
Bless you all and when you have spare time get in touch - we would love to hear from you. Graham really enjoyed your companionship when you were here Steve. And I love having you here cause you were so easy to please.
We would love to meet Ainsley one day as her music is awesome - we have her CD and she has an awesome voice.
I belong to our worship team and really not musical at all - just enjoy singing. This year - we will do more practice as a team which will be better as otherwise we go in cold trying to sing and that makes it hard. One of the experience singers was trying to show us how to harmonise but after hearing you today Steve - your voice inspired me.
Anyhow take care and keep up the amazing work and Godbless you heaps
Love and Blessing
Phyllis, Graham, Topsy and Bruiser

Hi there, I have had the joy of seeing Steve Apirana twice performing live in Auckland. Though it was a long time ago, his humour and musical style & skill left a delible mark on my memory. He is such a great live artist. Those were my favourite performances by any Kiwi muso.
Can you include more future tour plans on your site round NZ as I am not sure when Steve will be back around performing in Auckland.
Thanks a lot.
Bless you guys!
Hi Steve,
No doubt your music is the best i have ever heard in my life. I had bought one "something beautiful" cassette years back which I lost, hence bought one more, which I have lost again, and I am still looking forward to buying one...these songs never die. Awesome songs, thanks a lot and my GOD bless you.
Hey Steve and Ainsley,
Due to my parents love of your music I have grown up on it and come to love it for myself. Your songs have been a real encouragement during the hard times and a true blessing in my life, especially recently; ultimately kept me focused on God and who he is, instead of this world. Thank you. Your work is very much appreciated. May God continue to bless you and your family!
Hey Steve. Saw you on TV in the UK last night....love your music! Must tell us when you come over to the UK, would love to hear you live.
Hi Apiranas. What a sweet sight!
Hay, I've been trying to do some research and find out who originally wrote E Te Ariki. Do you know?
Love to you and your whanau

Hey Steve, love your work!
My Uncle Kev once told me you guys used to play together back in NZ (Kev Gray), and more recently, my guitar 'top up teacher' Phill Yates has worked with you a bit apparently.. Lucky guy's!
Keep up the good work, now that I've found your website I'll keep an eye out for when you're in Brisbane next!!
Take care,
Rory

Hey Steve, Ainsley
Christmas greetings.
Steve. I saw you and Molly perform a few years ago. Wonderful.
Ainsley - It's so been on my mind lately to apologise. When I was young I was such a self centered, manipulative little prick. I know I made your life a misery at times. Just wanted to say sorry.
we have been prayin for you all , since leaving the sheep at the hospital........sooo long ago now... God allowed us to the bed in ICU, we continue to pray that god blesses your mighty ministry
Hi Ains
Just googled your name and found yr webpage. It's awesome - love the photos. Keep the calendar going so we can see where yr performing next.
Love you so much...
Hi Steve- not sure if you remember the young lebanese woman that sang bvs on No Turning Back. Now here's a funny thing ... after years of avoiding listening to the blues, now my lovely partner is a wicked maori boy who plays gat and every day at our house is full of the blues!! I think of you fondly and no one in NZ can touch you on vox and gat!!!!!
love, leza
Can't wait for your & James next dirt floor tour - bring it on, Ill be there:)
Your no 1 fans ... what else can we say! xxx
still listening to all yur albums bro keep it up! "tower of strength song" is te best i reckon hehe
Hi Steve

Blessings
Eric

May God bless you & your family heaps

Thanks Lisa for your encouragement. The weekend went really well - I think everyone enjoyed it. Ainsley
Hi Steve and Ainsley
I've never met either of you but have heard alot about Steve's ministry through Paradise Community Church in Adelaide were Ps. Ashley Evans is. I have family that attend.
But what I'm excited about is that Steve is going to Cootamundra this weekend for the Spirit 07 festival.
I have afew family members (inlaws) who are involved this weekend with organising and, it's exciting to know that Steve will be apart of it.
I don't think the Cootamundra mob really know how much they are going to enjoy his Ministry.
My brother in law is picking Steve up from the airport in Canberra.
Anyway I know this will be a wonderful time for the town of Cootamundra this weekend and Steve will have a blast.
Lisa
