MUSICAL MUSINGS

He grew up in a musically inclined family and that drove this zealous singer towards becoming a full-time musician. Singer and actor Siddharth Menon is a versatile artiste not only is he the co-founder of the popular band Thaikkudam Bridge, but he's also a playback singer who has crooned Malayalam film songs like Thumbi Penne, Theruvukal and Varikallo for different flicks. As a performer, he entertains music lovers when he sets the stage on fire as Sid Menon Live and also, as a part of KK Live, the band that used to perform with the late legendary singer KK. When it comes to acting, his filmography includes movies like Rockstar, Koole and Kolaambi and web-series like Instagramam. In a freewheeling chat with Provoke, the multi-talented Siddharth opens up about his journey as a singer, his acting career and more...

How did your tryst with singing happen?

The love for music has always run in my family. My father and mother used to sing, but not professionally. My father's older brother is a Carnatic teacher and his younger brother sings for our band Thaikkuddam Bridge. My sister writes songs for the band and my cousin Govind Vasanth is a singer too. My own brother, who lives in London has a band there. As a kid, I would listen to a lot of music and even perform in temples in Kerala. In fact, the first time I sang a Malayalam song was at the ISKCON temple in Mumbai and I ended up winning a prize. I started singing when I was in the first standard and sang in school competitions and youth festivals.

When did you take up music professionally?
