Roine Stolt (born 5 September 1956 in Uppsala) is a Swedish guitarist, vocalist and composer. A major figure in Sweden's rock history, guitarist/singer/composer Roine Stolt led two of his country's most successful progressive rock bands: Kaipa in the 1970s and The Flower Kings in the 1990s onward. His distinctive guitar style combined David Gilmour's debonair mid-tempo, Steve Howe's sharp edges, and Frank Zappa's virtuosity.
Stolt started his career in the late 1960s playing bass guitar in local rock bands. He switched to guitar in 1973 and in the brief sojourn with Allman Brothers-influenced "Orexis". In 1974 he became the guitarist in Kaipa, a professional progressive rock band, he was 17 years old at that time, the group made three successful albums and toured more than 100 gigs a year, including national TV and radio performances in Scandinavia. These Kaipa albums are now reissued worldwide and are often regarded as the premier Scandinavian symphonic rock albums of the seventies. In 1979 he left Kaipa to form his own group Fantasia and made two albums. The group split up in 1983 and Roine started working as a solo and session musician, arranger and producer.

Roine Stolt of The Flower Kings, Transatlantic, & Agents of Mercy Interview conducted: October 16th, 2013 Interview posted: October 16th, 2013 Roine Stolt began his career in the 1970’s as the driving force behind Kaipa, the leading Swedish progressive rock act of their time. In the 1990’s he would start the band he is now most well known for, The Flower Kings. In addition Roine is part of the prog supergroup Transatlantic. The Flower Kings put out an amazing 10 albums between 1995 and 2007, before going on a 5 year hiatus.

Falling out of the sky, falling into a dream.
All I need is the heart where it all can begin
It's just a matter of time, it's just a matter of trust
It's just a matter of faith when we all sleep in the dust.
Don't deny, just verify the genius of it all
It's the cycle of all living thing, hear the children
Hear the children call!
"We believe in the light, we believe in love every precious little thing
We believe you can still surrender you can serve the Flower King"
Going out into the grey, into purple and red
See, all the beautiful shapes flowing out of my head
It's just a matter of time, it's just a matter of trust
It's just a matter of faith when we all sleep in the dust.
Don't deny, just verify the genius of it all
It's the cycle of all living, hear the children
Hear the children call!
"We believe in the light, we believe in love every precious little thing
We believe you can still surrender you can serve the Flower King"
"We believe in the heart, we believe in healing in a house where angels sing
We'll unite the divided and the fallen one will serve the Flower King"
"We believe in the heart, we believe in healing in a house where angels sing
