A visionary band born in the streets of Stockholm. Playing improvised house, hip hop, afro-beat, jazz and Balkan on Bicycles, Baritone sax and Alto sax. Filled with energy and heart.
It all started of the summer 2015, when the two musicians Johan and Mårten, got a spontaneous idea – let’s leave our rehearsal studios and late club gigs for a while and try something different! With a baritone sax, a mini drum kit and a bike, they took place at Drottninggatan in Stockholm and started grooving, all improvised stuff and the crowd around them started to grow until the whole street was totally blocked and police had to stop the session to let people trough. People loved it, the coins were flowing in, videos spread over the globe, and there was no doubt this band would do some great things. The amazing alto saxophonist Björn joined the band, and he trio started building a repertoire of original songs blended with favorite hits.
Four years later Bicycle Beat has made several tours in the Nordics and Scandinavia, at streets, on weddings, birthday parties, festivals, clubs, conferences, demonstrations, groups trainings, open ceremonies for things like bike lanes, public transit and art exhibitions.
The band recorded their first album at Nataraj Studios called “Bikers”, only recorded in livesessions. In november 2018 the band went into studio for their second album, this time with guest artists, that will be released in spring 2019.
Since the start, this band has had a moral driving force, to be the change we want to see. Sharing the contributions from the streets with brothers and sisters in need, supporting initiatives towards an environmental and social transition towards a more humane society and a planet we proudly can leave to our children.

Surfers Corner
De nära vännerna i bandet Fågelvägen gästar Surfers Corner med sina unika silverljusa röster, fängslande melodier och lugnande harmonier. Förvänta er en genuint bra upplevelse som kanske till och med får dig att skratta, gråta och dansa.
Medlemmarna i fågelvägen träffades i de sena tonåren. Trots deras nära vänskap och musikaliska erfarenheter och talanger hade de aldrig spelat tillsammans som ett band. Fågelvägen startade 2014 som en duo bestående av Wendela och Tulda. Senare anslöt deras nära vänner Jonnathan och Tomas. I takt med bandets expansion utvecklades även genre de spelade från singer-songwriter till vad det är idag. Den första EP:n flyktfåglar släpptes 2017, samma år som de för första gången spelade tillsammans som ett band.
Ett år senare är det dags för spelning hos oss på Hallifornia. Kom ner till Surfers Corner och mys med nära och kära och alla andra.
