Cezaan Sonnekus

Zaan Sonnekus (a.k.a. Cézaan Sonnekus) is a South African musician, songwriter and singer, originally from Bloemfontein in the Free State, who currently lives in Pretoria for the past eleven years. He received his first guitar for his tenth birthday and has been obsessed with music and determined to make a career of it ever since.

Zaan and his longtime friend Tristan Adamson, both old Affies scholars, decided a few years back to start an audiovisual rental and online retail business. They also worked hard to revive the recording and rehearsal studios, a business initiative of Zaan and his brother-in-law, which went dormant during the Covid period.
