Terje studied piano from age 5-12, trumpet at age 8, and guitar at age 12-13. He was a teen guitar hero in the group Vanguard, which was a sort of Norwegian take on the British Shadows and the American Ventures. He planned on studying electrical engineering at the Technical University in Trondheim, Norway, but left to pursue a career in music.
