Nalle ( Finnish for a small bear, generally a teddy bear, and named after a childhood toy of vocalist Hanna Tuulikki) are a psychedelic folk trio, based in Glasgow, who were formed in the summer of 2004. They comprise Finnish- English vocalist Hanna Tuulikki (vocals, kantele, flute), Aby Vulliamy ( viola) and Chris Hladowski ( bouzouki, clarinet). Nalle combine improvisational song structures with unusual instrumentation, sometimes with a decidedly Celtic influence. Tuulikki's vocals have been compared to those of Joanna Newsom and Björk.
Nalle have released music on Pickled Egg Records, Locust Music and have also released a track on Singing Knives Records. Their debut album, By Chance Upon Waking has received favourable reviews thus far from publications such as Trouser Press and PopMatters.
