Nest is a Finnish neofolk / ambient band. The band's inspiration comes from the old folk and animal tales, as well as from the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and the Grimm Brothers. Kantele, a traditional Finnish musical instrument, is very prominent in the band's music. They recently contributed a cover of the song "The Gallant Crow" to the Skepticism tribute album "Entering The Levitation".
