Stokke was TNT's live keyboardist from April 1987 to 2011 and played on every TNT album from Realized Fantasies (1992) to A Farewell to Arms (2010).[1] However, he was never a permanent TNT member.[1] "I'm cool with my position in TNT," he said in a 2010 interview, "Some people ask me why I'm not in the pictures and why I'm not profiled. That's just the way it is, and I'm completely laidback with that. I got to experience the rockstar existence so much in 1987 and especially in 1989 and a little bit into 1992, so that dream has been realized. If I'm not upfront, that's totally cool, because I know I've been a part of all this."[1] He played his last concert with TNT in Umeå, Sweden on March 5, 2011.[2]
In January 2011 he found out he had cancer.[2] Stokke died on April 27, 2011 at the age of 44. He is survived by a son.[3][4]
