Messages screamed from the past, and whispered into the future.

Steffan's debut collection follows a life's journey through poetry. Written from the voice of a Canadian born son, of Caribbean parents. Echoes revels in childhood blissful ignorance. It faces issues of adolescent alienation. The monotony of day-to-day struggle through adulthood, and finding the tiny moments of joy to hold onto. Music acts as a paintbrush that colours these memories and experiences with a scattered playlist soundtrack. Punk, Soca, Ska, Jazz, and Soul are just some of the genres that are held sacred by Steffan and flows through his stanzas. This first entry in Steffan's career was crafted over years of personal writing as a creative outlet. Shaped and refined over time, these verses demonstrate a love of the flow of language. Especially, how it can explore deeply personal feelings, but connect to his audience in a universal and relatable fashion. Echoes is a call to all that grapple with similar thoughts, and hold onto a tune while they do so.
