Canadian Power Pop Master Steve Eggers (The Nines) Talks “Echoes of Past Future”
In this exclusive interview, I sit down with Steve Eggers, the creative force behind The Nines, to dive deep into his brand-new album Echoes of Past Future — a stunning collection that feels like it was unearthed straight from the golden era of 1970s pop and rock.
Steve opens up about the songwriting process, his favorite recording techniques, and how he managed to capture that authentic vintage warmth that defined artists like The Beatles, Todd Rundgren, and 10cc. We talk about the gear, the mindset, and the creative philosophy that makes this album sound like a lost classic — yet still fresh and emotionally resonant today.
