Tvärvägen is the moniker of the Swedish multi-instrumentalist and composer Henrik Öhberg. His fifth and latest album "A Great Circle Route" came out in January 2023. This time he delved deeper into the melodic minimalism that's always been at the core of his musical universe. His sonic palette shifted and expanded through new pieces for saxophone quartet, modular electronics and electric guitar, which were accompanied by the familiar colors of accordion, analog synthesizers and piano. The album was picked as New and Notable by the tastemakers at Bandcamp Daily and was well received in his native country, with Lira, the leading Swedish magazine for jazz, folk and world music, praising the album's beauty and minimalism.
Tvärvägen began as Henrik’s experimental side hustle back in 2008 when he was part of indie act Ironville and hip hop duo Amok, the latter whose songs were subsequently featured in Palme d'Or winner "The Square". But soon enough Tvärvägen was his main endeavor and he has since then had a minor streaming hit with "Everything That Can Be Invented", counting more than 6 million plays on Spotify. He has been dabbling with post-classical music for string quartet as well as ethereal soundscapes and his songs have been featured in numerous tv- och radio shows, in documentaries, features, lifestyle, news, children's shows and drama productions, primarily on Swedish public service broadcasting. In 2022 he was one of the Swedish Skap Award recipients.
