BIOGRAPHY

My name is Pierre Opperman, a.k.a (oppie), and I am an artist who plays “Acoustic guitar/vocalist, and was formerly a drummer.

I have been playing guitar for approximately twenty-six years.

In Oct 2001, I recorded a 2x song demo-cd called “Karma” at Manley Studios, Pretoria.

“Who’s to know” and “In & Out” were produced by Sean Manley of “Manley Studios”, who also engineered/mixed the songs and did lead-guitar-fills on both tracks.

In April 2008, I recorded an EP, consisting of 5x songs at Peace of Eden Recording Studios, Knysna (www.peaceofeden.co.za)

• Money –less

• Runaway

Have just completed a new song “Desert light” which will be included on the album.

Will add more songs, on this album in the near future.
