I am a multi-dimensional, independent songwriter/artist, based in Los Angeles. I’ve co-produced and released 4 albums and 2 EPs as a leader/solo artist, and been involved in numerous other live and studio productions as a singer. pianist, writer, educator and coach.
I completed my Master’s Degree in Songwriting at Berklee College of Music in 2023, where I spent a year honing my songwriting and production skills, focusing on generative work and expanding my catalogue of music.
“I have always sought out people who inspire me to do and be better. My ‘school’, my music education has been all about learning and growing from my cumulative experience.
Some of my greatest teachers have been the exceptional musicians I get to work with (Brian Blade, Carlitos del Puerto, Alex Machacek, Scott Kinsey, among others).”
REVIEWS
Sumitra has established herself as an artist with a winning sound and vision all her own. Her fourth album, Bittersweet, has all the markings of a major breakthrough, bringing together a superlative cast and her consistently engaging, often enchanting body of songs
Andrew Gilbert/Jazz Times
The mystical Sumitra Nanjundan has woven her magic on my composition, FREEDOM, in her wonderful interpretation for her current album out now. Humbled and Honoured.
