Appu Krishnan

Krishnan, Appu
Keyboard Technology

Originally from Kerala, India, Appu Krishnan began performing music at the age of 11 and quickly developed a name for himself as a live keyboardist for local classic rock and metal bands. In his early teens, Appu began working with some of the top names in the Indian pop-film industries as a session musician, which soon led him to producing records for other artists and scoring for TV, film and animation. During that time, Appu also studied physics and eventually earned his BE in Mechanical Engineering while serving as a product specialist for Korg musical instruments. Appu has been nominated for numerous awards, including the L.A. Music Awards, for his work with independent singer/songwriters. He works closely with Renato Nieto (Prince, Sheila E.) as a studio technician, as a staff engineer for Hugh James (Michael McDonald, Tiffany) and mixes for multiple producers and artists, such as Valente Bertelli, Norwegian Electronic artist Hilde Klain and Jazz pianist Yoon Seung Cho. At MI, Appu teaches Digital Music, Roland Fantom-G Workshop, Synthesis, Sampling and Private Lessons.
