Coetzee Hannes composes his own songs and learned to play the guitar on the side of the hill when the aloes were too dry to tap and to keep himself company on long, lonely nights in the mountains of the Kamiesberg. His right-hand finger picking style is called "optel en knyp" (which translated from Afrikaans, Hannes' home language, is "pick up and pinch") and combined with his unique teaspoon slide technique, he ranks as one of the most unusual slide guitarists in the world. If you shut your eyes, you would think that there were two people accompanying each other on guitars.
