About Adithya

10 years into his musical journey, Adithya aims to break musical and cultural boundaries, cultivating a deeper meaning behind his sound. He currently is pursuing his master's in music at NYU Steinhardt, studying with Rich Perry.

For his undergraduate degree, Kris Allen, Gregg August, Mike Kolodny, and Devesh Chandra provided inspiration and mentorship at the highest level at Williams College. In addition to playing in many ensembles at Williams (jazz ensembles, the Zambezi marimba band, Vive Latin American music ensemble, for the occasional presidential event, and house party bands), Adithya also plays gigs regularly in the Berkshires with guitarist Michael Junkins and Wingspan, a group made up of Williams alumni. The Adithya Vaidhyan Quartet annually makes a pilgrimage to the Sharp 9 Gallery in Durham and can be found at jam sessions in and around the Triangle.

Adithya is also grateful to be associated with the Litchfield Jazz Camp for the past 4 years. While working at this fabled  jazz camp, Adithya has had the opportunity to work with the likes of Dave Ballou, Paul Bollenback, Don Braden, Mike DiRubbo, Jimmy Greene, Andrew Hadro, Russ Johnson, Cailey O'Doherty, and Albert Rivera.
