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.
