Vignesh Ishwar

Vignesh Ishwar began learning music at the age of three under the guidance of Palakkad T.S. Anantharama Bhagawathar for over 15 years, and later trained under Shri T.M. Krishna in 2008.

An undergraduate in Electrical Engineering and a graduate in Sound and Music Technology from the Music Group Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Vignesh took up Carnatic music full time in Chennai and later continued to learn and practice in Mumbai. He also sings playback and has worked in the ‘Kollywood’ entertainment industry. His work has been repeatedly recognised in Tamil-language movies, as a result of which he has worked predominantly in the Tamil film industry.

With his sonorous voice, charming stage presence, effortless brigas and perfect diction, he leaves his audience awestruck. Vignesh has been defined in the media as an ‘artist to be watched’.
