Biography

U. Srinivas, born on February 28, 1969, in Palakol, Andhra Pradesh, is a renowned musician known as Mandolin Srinivas. He was taught by his father, Satayanarayana Raju, and made his debut at the age of nine, quickly gaining recognition as a child prodigy. Srinivas was the first to introduce the mandolin into Indian Karnatic classical music, utilizing a unique five-string solid body electric model. His recorded works showcase a progression of skill and artistry throughout his career.

Chitravina Ravikiran is a notable musician specializing in the chitravina, while Cook Srivivasalu, a Tamil composer, earned his moniker from his work as a temple cook. Srinivas's innovative approach to the mandolin sets him apart from traditional models, drawing comparisons to American mandolinist Tiny Moore's electric instrument. Despite a prolific recording history, Srinivas continues to be celebrated for his contributions to Indian classical music.
