STEFAN SCHILL BAND

Friday 10 January 2014 2014

Stefan Schill fell in love with music at a very early age. After all, it was all around in his home. Seeing Bon Jovi do an unplugged show on MTV was a major turning point. 'I don’t care too much for their music to be honest. But seeing Ritchie Samborra mesmerize an entire audience with his guitar made me realise I wanted to do what he did, and become what he was.'

Stefan Schill was initially heavily inspired by his dad’s record collection, which had a large blues section. Blues is still an important ingredient in his sound. But there is so much more. Through the years young Stefan Schill listened to a great variety of bands and musicians, who all left their traces one way or another. ‘I think Prince is a genius. He is a killer guitar player, but I like him even more for what he does with his voice. I also admire acts such as like The Police, D’Angelo, John Mayer and Kings Of Leon. Besides these guys, Soul and hip hop also play a big part in my musical development.’

Early 2012 Stefan Schill started to record his second album. During these recordings many musicians will join in on the process. One of them is Satindra Kalpoe who has played with the likes of Anouk, Relax and many more. His single ‘I want you so bad’ has been released in July.
