Born in Sweden, he spent a part of his youth in New Zealand. At the age of eight, he began taking violin lessons. Continuously singing, he started learning to play the guitar at the age of 12 in order to accompany himself. Shortly after that, he was writing his own songs. Many years later Stef is looking back at a varied musical life, having learned to play numerous intruments simply because he couldn't keep his fingers off them.
