'''Vangelis Perpiniadis''' was a Greek singer and composer of [[Laiko|laika]] music.

He was born on [[September 1]], [[1927]], the son of [[Rebetiko]] singer [[Stelios Perpiniadis]]. His childhood was spent in the poor [[Piraeus]] suburb of [[Nikaia]] better known as [[Kokkinia]] where he was a choir boy for the local church.

His big break came in [[1947]] when he was discovered by [[Mimis Traiforos]] a composer and husband of the great singer [[Sophia Vembo]]. Perpiniadis sang as a second voice until [[1956]] when his own recording career began with record company Odeon-Parlophon whose director was [[Minos Matsas]]. He sang songs by composers [[Markos Vamvakaris]], [[Vasilis Tsitsanis]], [[Yiannis Papaioannou (rebetika)|Yiannis Papaioannou]], [[Apostolos Kaldaras]] and others. At that time, he also played in the cinema co-starring with actors such as [[Christoforos Nezer]], [[Kakia Analyti]], [[Despo Diamantidou]], [[Mimis Fotopoulos]] and others.

From [[1962]] until [[1968]], Perpiniadis was accompanied in his songs by [[Ria Norma]] forming one of the great duets at that time.

After that, from [[1970]] until [[1995]], he toured the US, Canada and Australia, bringing his music to the Greek immigrants in those countries. Perpiniadis would also sing at various villages during local holidays and celebrations.

He passed away on [[May 11]], [[2003]] after a battle with cancer.
