Stig Van Eijk

Stig van Eijk was born in Cali, Colombia, in 1981 and adopted to Norway only 9 months old. 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 “Living my life without you” and his debut album “Where I belong” 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.
Stig writes music for other artists. Heinz Winckler won the South-Africa Idol in 2002 with Stigs song, “Once in a lifetime” (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 2013 Stig released his album "Presentation". The albums content reflects 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. 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.
