U. Srinivas
07/23/2009 · Grant Davis
U. Srinivas was born on February 28, 1969, in Palakol, Andhra Pradesh. His father, Satayanarayana Raju, taught him initially and he made his first public appearance at the age of nine. He proved a revelation and was hailed as a child prodigy. Choosing to use a less traditional form of the mandolin, he uses a five-string solid body electric model akin to the electric instrument played by the American mandolinist Tiny Moore. He is noted as the pioneer of the mandolin in Indian Carnatic music.
