“The collection of poems speaks like a journey through each formative moment we’d forgotten we had: the monster under the bed and the intricate rules about how to overcome its powers; the ability to talk to girls or boys we liked; the fear of being bullied; our first experience with real anguish.” – Litlive.ca

Featuring “To This Day” viral success with over 5 million Youtube views.

Blending the poignant words of spoken word poet, Shane Koyczan, with the emotionally engaging music of The Short Story Long, Remembrance Year is an album that is sure to touch your heart, inspire your soul and leave you wanting more.

“Track three – ‘To This Day.’ is an inspiring ode to human emotional resilience in my opinion and worth all seven minutes of listening time. Track four – ‘Insider,’ has a bouncy, reggae/folk feel, playful vocals and a catchy chorus. There are genuinely soulful moments on this album which give even more depth to some weighty themes.

Shane boldly and bravely navigates the cold and barren landscape of loneliness and rejection when most of us would prefer the safety of our own apprehension. There are warm, lush and moist places explored on this record as well. I’m recommending it with enthusiasm.” –Bobby Heron BC Musician Magazine
