Nestor

**Nestor** is a Swedish rock band that’s been reviving the glory days of ‘80s arena rock with a modern edge. Originally formed in the late ‘80s, the band took a hiatus before storming back in the 2020s with a sound that blends fist-pumping anthems, shimmering guitars, and big choruses. Fronted by charismatic singer Tobias Gustavsson, Nestor taps into nostalgia while feeling totally fresh, like they’ve time-traveled straight from a vintage MTV rotation. Their 2022 album *Kids in a Ghost Town* (and its deluxe version) became a love letter to retro rock, featuring tracks like “Teenage Rebel” and “Victorious,” which are packed with sing-aloud energy and leather-jacket swagger. Whether they’re dropping piano versions of songs like “On the Run” or cranking up the amps for headbangers like “Signed in Blood,” Nestor’s mission is clear: keep the spirit of ‘80s rock alive, one power ballad at a time. Catch ‘em live if you want a masterclass in how to rock a denim vest and a headband.
