Robert Ståhlbrand

about

Robert was born 1971 and lives currently in Sweden at an island called Orust, about 7 miles north of Gothenburg with wife (Liselott) and two children, now 7 (Alva) and 4 (Oliver) years old. Robert has been very interested by music from the day his mother more or less forced him into the musical school in the age of 8 for playing the flute. He was immediately addicted by playing an instrument but what he really wanted was to play piano and less than a year after, in the age of 9, Robert was taken into the piano school where he studied with Mats Runge (today the principle of the Musical school of Orust) from 1980 to 1985. His grandfather bought him the first piano (Nylund & Son) and he learned quickly to play. Robert's parents had to have special rules to be able to live through his addiction to the piano. No piano before 8 in the mornings and Robert says to be very thankful for their patience of his endless practising. At 1985, Robert's interest in this age was more about modern music like Synth and Rock music and he joined several bands and at the age of 22, was asked to enter a band for a musical contest. The band (ToeJam) was at start a fun event with skilled musicians put together and won a large music contest in 1993 and got to play in front of 5000 people, was on the first side of the largest newspaper in Sweden etc. With this success, the band made records, tours and large shows but splitted in 1994 which was the same year as Robert finished his engineering graduation
