Ananthan has been interested in music from early on his life. He pursued it with passion, even during his college days as an engineering student ( Canada ), Ananthan regularly participated in singing competitions and was part of an outstanding group called “Konesh”. He was one of their lead singers. After few years Ananthan and his friends started a group called “Mega Tuners” which still is the No.1 Band in Toronto, Canada .

After moving to California, he started looking to join a reputable band in the Bay Area and was delighted to join Raagalaya in September, 2007. Ananthan sang in two different albums by a talented music composer/director Mohan from Canada . He sang a song for a Tamil Movie as well (Tamil Mazhan). Even though he grew up in very classical background, he learned music from just listening to Illayaraja’s compositions and practising S.P.B’s songs. It helped him learn the nuances of light music like voice modulation etc. Ananthan had the honor of singing with P.Suseela on stage. Ananthan loves melody songs.
