On this tour, Kip Berman (singer, guitarist and main songwriter), Peggy Wang (keyboardist), Christoph Hochheim (guitar) and Kurt Feldman (drums) will take the stage. Alex Naidus has not been able to join the event (“because he is attending to very good personal issues,” said Berman), so the bass will be handled by Eddy Marshall, who is also in charge of that instrument in The Natvral, the project that Kip leads. for five years.
