A celebration of the Dutch band Nits EP 14
A special event takes place in November of 1996. Henk Hofstede from Holland collaborates with the Swiss band «Stop the Shoppers» and guest singer Chessy Weaver for a short tour in their home country. Their repertoire : old Nits-songs like «The train» or «A touch of Henry Moore» plus a collection of new songs by Hofstede that were never played before. Many of these songs will be recorded in January of 1997 for inclusion on the next Nits-album.
In this episode, you hear recordings from the concerts in 1996. We have also organized a meeting of two members of the Shoppers – keyboarder Christian Brantschen and guitarist Oli Hartung – and Henk Hofstede in a studio in Berne in 2024. Drummer Rob Kloet shares his memories of the recording of the album and the audition of two new members Arwen Linneman and Titia van Krieken. They in turn talk about their first experiences in this new band called The Nits.
Postmaster: Seppo Pietikäinen.
