10 Questions with ... Sid Sriram1) Thanks for taking the time to answer 10 Questions for All Access. Where does this interview find you today? What's on the agenda besides this interview?
I'm currently in Red Hook, Brooklyn. I turn 33 today, feeling very introspective. I'll be heading to my studio at Pioneerworks shortly to make some music.
2) Let's start at the beginning. How long have you been playing music and when did you decide you wanted to make music for a living?
My mother started teaching me Carnatic (South Indian Classical) vocal music when I was three. Music has felt elemental to me from that age. I think I always knew that music was the only thing that I'd ever want to do with my life. It became a conscious realisation/decision when I was a junior in high school.
3) How much has India's music scene and artists influenced you?
I started singing for South Indian films in 2012, debuting with a collaboration with the legend AR Rahman. By 2016, I started to become a household name and by 2020 I was at the very top of the industry. This trajectory has allowed me a very unique perspective on the music of the country. India is a huge country with so many layers and dimensions to its culture. My roots have informed all of my music, and there are countless artists of the past that are a huge part of my artistic vocabulary.
