Shradha Ganesh

About Me

Singing is not just my profession; it's my way of connecting with the world. From close gated venues to grand stages, each performance is a new story, a new connection with my audience.

Music has always been my soul's calling. At just two years old, I made a spirited dash onto a stage, grabbing the microphone with all the determination my tiny hands could muster. That moment marked the beginning of a journey that has been as exhilarating as it has been transformative.Growing up in a musically enriched environment, my earliest influence was my grandmother, a Carnatic musician who sang and played the veena. By the age of four, I began formal music training under her guidance. Frequent relocations—from Oman to Bahrain, Dubai, and eventually Canada—broadened my musical horizons, each new place adding a unique rhythm to my life.In Canada, I immersed myself in music, participating in competitions and performing regularly. My passion led me to Berklee College of Music, where I pursued a double major in film scoring and electronic production and design. At Berklee, I collaborated with talented musicians from around the world. One of my proudest achievements was being part of the Berklee Indian Ensemble, whose debut album, Shuruaat, received a Grammy nomination.

Shradha is not only an enormously talented singer, but a thorough professional with superb attention to detail.

A few months ago, I was introduced to Shradha Ganesh. She came highly recommended by a mutual friend. She absolutely exceeded my expectations. In the last 4 months we have recorded multiple projects including my forthcoming album with Universal Music. We performed a dozen concerts together across India. Shradha is not only an enormously talented singer, but a thorough professional with superb attention to detail. She is always well prepared with great stage presence. Shradha has added a lot to my musical landscape and concerts, and is now an integral part of my career.
