Oliver Mandic

Musically involved from a young age, he first started playing the accordion before taking up the piano. In his early youth, Mandic's family moved to the capital Belgrade where he pursued a career of a pianist after getting accepted at highly reputable Kornelije Stankovic musical high school.

Towards the end of 1971 he started playing in a jazz-rock band Oliver with members of Pop Mašina along with Dušan Prelevic on vocal.
