" They almost open like a prayer or claim. It is the great jazz God that is invoked with groovy patterns and cautious accompaniment. It's beautiful and almost naively guilty when Fartyg 6 moves between shouting and singing. And here it is justified to talk about caring of the sound. The group is so tight, everyone is next to each other, paying attention to the slightest movement. (...) 

​

For each piece, they create their own category which holds quite a lot of varieties. Its artful and above all a triumph that Fartyg 6 as a group agrees all the time, even when they are not." /Thomas Millroth - Orkesterjournalen ("Allt Faller" 2018)

"Den här musiken tänjer på gränserna och vill inte gärna fastna i någon känd form och sången lägger, som sagt, mycket till, inte minst för den också används som ett improviserande instrument. Jag har många gånger just saknat sång i ovan beskrivna “gränslandsmusik”. Fartyg 6 lyckas förena sång med meningsfulla texter och en utmanande musik på ett konstfullt och övertygande sätt som man gärna vill höra mer av!"
/Roger Bergner, Orkesterjournalen 2016

"Musikken er ofte litt teatralsk, morsom og eksperimentell, og mye av den swinger på en helt særegen måte. De får også tid til å bevege seg inn i det fritt eksperimenterende, noe jeg synes de gjør på en overbevisende måte." /Jan Granlie 2016

"Along with the first title, Den Första, Fartyg 6 released a wide range of experimental lust and creativity where the boundaries between jazz, Swedish visa, art music and poetry were erased  and blended into something very original.

In all cases, the group has further developed its mix music ... resulting in music that is playful but also extremely well-organized, both very varied and even more challenging."
