Other voices, other rooms. In this episode, you will hear the opinions and observations of people who have crossed paths with the Nits or who have admired them from a distance.
Matthias Erb, radio DJ and Fritz Hauser, percussionist who has worked with Rob Kloet many times, both come from Basel, the first city in Switzerland to fully adopt the Nits.
Seppo Pietikäinen from Finland met them while working as a photographer and ended up as personal friend of the band. He appeared as a guest on several of their tracks.

Kevin Hearn, member of the Canadian band «Barenaked Ladies» has been a fan of the Nits for a long time.
