Svante Söderqvist THE ROCKET is a Nordic band full of life, inspiring listeners to be playful even in challenging times. Led by composer, double bassist, and cellist Svante Söderqvist, the band brings together Tuulikki Bartosik on accordion and electronics, Adam Forkelid on piano, and Calle Rasmusson on drums, four strong voices creating music that grows around you.
The sound has room to breathe and respond. Rooted in jazz but reaching into pop melodies, folk colours, and contemporary classical sound textures, the music blends acoustic and electronic elements, clear grooves, and the accordion’s distinctive voice. Tunes linger, lines unfold gently, and the band invites listeners into moments that are surprising and alive. There is a Nordic sense of space and light, paired with warmth, movement, and togetherness. Live, the band carries the focus and energy of a pop act, turning concerts into shared journeys rather than performances to watch.
The upcoming album “Like in the Movies”, released in March 2026, marks the next chapter in Söderqvist’s evolving work, shaped by long collaboration, curiosity, and a desire to inspire connection, joy, and hope.
Svante Söderqvist THE ROCKET tours Europe from April 2026.
