...started out in the early 80s. He was checking out a guitar with 3 strings and got blown away by the sound (read noise)!

He lists his early influences as Ace Frehley, Gary Moore & Michael Schenker.
He got hooked on bands like Accept, Saxon, Ozzy, Ratt, Dokken, Van Halen, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Alcatrazz & Y&T, but he also fell in love with classical music and jazz.

"When I heard Yngwie Malmsteen for the first time it made a huge impression on me - classical sounding music played with a sweet, heavy guitar sound! Yngwie was a huge influence"

         



Stefan has been playing with a lot of bands and artists since the late 80s.
          In 2008 he did an instrumental CD called "The Guitar Diaries".

 You can hear Stefan streaching his strings with Dawn of Oblivion since 1998. He also plays with Fullforce, Cloudscape, Pelle Lindberg Band and Gone Fishing!
