In The Nursery is a neo-classical/martial music band known for their cinematic and atmospheric soundscapes that blend elements of classical instrumentation with modern electronic music. Formed in Sheffield, England in 1981 by twin brothers Klive and Nigel Humberstone, the group has established a unique niche by providing soundtracks for classic silent films and creating thematic albums inspired by history, literature, and film.

Throughout their prolific career, In The Nursery has released a substantial body of work that showcases their distinctive style, which often incorporates a mix of orchestral drums, powerful strings, and electronic layers. Albums like "1961," which marked the year of the Humberstone twins' birth, reflect on historical events and personal significance, while "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari" provide evocative soundtracks to iconic silent films. The band's music has not only gained them a devoted following but has also seen them perform at film festivals and special events around the world, where they deliver immersive live performances alongside the films they score. The 2020 remaster of their seminal album "Twins" reaffirms their lasting impact on the post-industrial and neoclassical genres. With a career spanning over four decades, In The Nursery continues to innovate and inspire with their artistic and evocative compositions.
