He overcame a series of personal obstacles, includingpartial loss of hearingand a nearly career-ending bout withtendondamage in his right hand, to emerge as a widely recognized master of his instrument. He currently resides in theMinneapolisarea with his family.

Focusing primarily on instrumental composition and playing, Kottke also sings sporadically, in an unconventional yet expressivebaritonedescribed by himself as sounding like “geese farts on a muggy day”.[1]In concert, Kottke intersperses humorous and often bizarremonologueswithvocalandinstrumentalselections from throughout his career, played solo on his6-and12-string guitars.
