Early life

David and his brother Loga were exposed to music making through their mother, radio announcer and Carnatic classical singer, who would often brought them along to her performance sessions; particularly in town halls. Such experiences instilled a strong passion in him to play music at a very young age. He often played truant in school to do rehearsals with a band that he performed with his friends, and he eventually quit school at the age of 17 because "history and geography was not helping me in my music."
