Since he was a little boy he always had interests in music, and he quickly learned to play both guitar and piano. As the years went by he made a performance in the Eurovision song contest, and had a tour through all of Norway. He released a single ôLiving my life without youö and his debut album ôWhere I belongö in 1999. Both sold to gold in Norway (35.000 copies). This same year Stig became the male-artist of the year during the Hit awards. Even though he had a lot of success with his music, he wasnÆt satisfied. The beginning of his music career had been all about pop music and people trying to turn him into something, which he was not. He broke up with the big record label and started the search for ôhis own, personal musicö. In 2001 he started The B:underground Club in Bergen city, where a lot of different people could perform live with his house band. This is the place where he made the foundation of The Soul Express Orchestra. During this time Stig continued writing music for other artists. Heinz Winckler won the South-Africa Idol in 2002 with Stigs song, ôOnce in a lifetimeö (sold to platinum, 100.000 copies). Stig also made a peace song for his mother country, Colombia, in 2002. The song was recorded with the symphony orchestra of Bogota, and he went there, performing the song on different concerts and television shows. In 2007 moved Stig to Ericeira (Portugal), pursuing his heart for inspiration and with the music as his best companion. His stay in Portugal gave him new energy to write more music than ever before. The known Portuguese artist, Nuno Barroso and Stig made a creative and very close friendship and together they wrote the song, ôWithout faithö. The Soul Express Orchestra takes soul and funk music into new frontiers and brings it back to the roots of reggae music. Together they created a spiritual music that probably never been surface here in the cold north. The band has with different backgrounds from soul, hip-hop, jazz, metal and funky rock established their unique sound. With their eight members on stage they are performing their music for one equal goal... To win the audiences heart and soul! The band have toured around Norway and played on several festivals, for instance The Quart festival in Kristiansand and By: larm in Oslo. The Soul Express Orchestra released their first album ôTime for a changeö in 2010. These days heÆs recording a new album in studio. The albums content will reflect all of his influences from different genres experienced through his career, but with the main foundation of reggae and soul. There is nothing in the world that can take away the passion Stig got for his music. In fact Stig is music. Music keeps him alive. Music is to be able to breath, to keep seeking and continuously improving. His vocal and lyrics reflects his personality. He is a peaceful and humble soul wanting the best for other people, yet with a temper like a warrior. Stig Van Eijks music is fire, passion, love and hope.
