Nemanja Kojić (December 17, 1975 in Belgrade, Serbia), better known by his stage name Hornsman Coyote (or just Coyote), is a Serbian Reggae/Dub and Rock musician.[1][2]
Music
He has been on the local scene for about 17 years, playing with reggae, hip hop and hardcore bands like Del Arno Band, Sunshine, Dead Ideas, etc.
In 1994 he formed his own band, Eyesburn. It took a few years for Eyesburn to become a hardcore/reggae legend in the Balkans after recording 5 albums, 1 EP and 1 collaboration dub album (with Ank Steadyspear). They had a European tour in 2004, supporting and performing a song, "Moses," with the legendary Max Cavalera and his band, Soulfly. Eyesburn have officially disbanded in 2017 over the statement on their official Facebook profile , as well as on interview with Coyote. He immediately started new Hard Rock/Stoner Rock band "Remedy", stating that he will always continue with his Reggae projects.
Coyote himself worked outside Serbia on Dark Ages, another Soulfly record, where he plays the song "Innerspirit" as guest. At the same time he worked with top Serbian hip hop producer Wikluh Sky and French MC King Kyll, making one album under the name Shappa. In Serbia, as a supporting act, he and his bandmates shared stages with artists like Burning Spear, Dub Syndicate, Lee Scratch Perry, Asian Dub Foundation, etc. Coyote also appeared as a session musician and as a guest playing the trombone, guitars or singing for many Belgrade and ex-YU bands, such as Riblja Čorba, Discord, Skarps, Irie FM, Dub Rebellion, Who See?, Kanda, Kodža i Nebojša, Darkwood Dub, Block Out, E-Play, Raspect, etc.
His solo album "What next?!," garnered much success. He recorded fifteen songs, which he performed on Exit Festival (Novi Sad, Serbia) and many other festivals and solo concerts .
In 2010, he released his second solo album, entitled "Self Defend You" (2010), under the Polish label Karrot Kommando.
Personal life
Coyote resides in Belgrade. He is the son of Borivoje Kojić, a famous Serbian artist.
