Besides Nix and Nolet, the faculty included David Murray, Glenn Moore, Fred Hopkins, Eddie Bobe, Jay Rodriguez, Roy Campbell, and others.
In the 1990s Nolet led StringFaced featuring Bern Nix, Fred Hopkins and Diedre Murray reviewed by Jon Parales, toured Europe, and released a CD through the Knitting Factory Works label.
