The Hottentots

Carl Cleves and Parissa Bouas, The Hottentots, are two of Australia’s finest songwriters, whose wonderfully textured quilt of beautiful and meaningful songs creates an intimate and moving concert experience.

Parissa’s dulcet toned voice and Carl’s warm rustic baritone provides the perfect accompaniment for his unique guitar style, honed over many years of intrepid travelling across the globe.

Classic folk melodies combine with strong lyrics and an international flavour to provide a well-focused, fresh and definitive sound.

“Parissa has a voice that would aggravate angels with its beauty” Philip Adams, ABC Radio National

“Exceptionally well written music and lyrics, beautifully arranged and superbly performed” - Debra Manskey, Australian Songwriter Magazine
