Win/So artists Peter Oprisko and Sean Baker’s song “Winter’s Retreat” was featured on this weeks episode of Criminal Minds on CBS. Episode 712 titled “Unknown Subject” will not only feature their song but will be used as visual performance as a man plays the song at a bar.
Often described as the “American Michael Buble,” or the “next Frank Sinatra,” Chicago-based singer/lyricist Peter Oprisko studied the fine craft of lyric writing under the tutelage of 4-time Oscar-winning lyricist Sammy Cahn while attending Indiana University in the early-1990′s. From 1992 -2002, Peter enjoyed a successful career as an actor, voice-over performer, and national radio personality before embarking on a path that has led him to become one of the nation’s most in-demand and acclaimed concert and recording artists.
Averaging 300 performances annually nationwide, Peter’s exciting, engaging, and interactive presentation preserves, promotes, and perpetuates the rich musical legacies of America’s foremost singers and songwriters. Grammy-winning jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis calls Oprisko “The Rolls Royce” of singers today, and in addition to the National Anthem singer for the Chicago White Sox, Peter’s recording of “Jingle Bells” was featured in a recent holiday episode of the popular CBS-TV series “NCIS.”
An effective headliner in his own right, Peter has also established himself as a popular opener for other top-flight acts such as the Buckinghams, Howard Levy, and the Beach Boys. Peter is a voting member of NARAS(the Grammy Awards) and ASCAP, and is vice-president of Retropolis Records for which he prolifically writes and records.
