Beardfish are a Swedish progressive rock band formed in 2001. Their style resembles progressive rock bands from the 1970s, such as Yes and Genesis. The band's most prolific line-up consisted of founding members vocalist/keyboardist/guitarist Rikard Sjöblom and guitarist David Zackrisson, along with longtime drummer Magnus Östgren and bassist Robert Hansen; who joined the band in 2001 and 2002 respectively; this line-up existed from 2003 (following the departure of keyboardist/guitarist Stefan Aronsson) until the band's dissolution in 2016. The initial lineup of Beardfish consisted of frontman Rikard Sjöblom, guitarist David Zackrisson, bassist Gabriel Olsson, and drummer Petter Diamant. Before the end of 2001, Diamant had been replaced by Magnus Östgren, and early in 2002 the band's lineup was augmented by keyboardist Stefan Aronsson. Later that year, Olsson was replaced by Robert Hansen, and it was this lineup that recorded the band's debut album, Från En Plats Du Ej Kan Se, in 2003. Following the release of the album, Aronsson left the band, leaving Beardfish with the four-man lineup which existed for the rest of the duration of the band's existence. Following the release of the band's second album, The Sane Day, in 2006, the band were signed by InsideOut Music, and also performed their first concert in the US at the legendary Progday festival in North Carolina. Beardfish have remained on InsideOut ever since, releasing six more albums to date, the latest of which was 2015's +4626-COMFORTZONE. In 2008, Beardfish toured with fellow progressive rock band The Tangent.
