“The only way I could ever really talk about things that mattered to me was to do it from a stage, with a guitar in my hand, and a microphone in front of me. I’ve never been much of a talker though, so I would just sing about everything.”
From playing guitar in his Kitchener high school music class, to selling out hometown venues, to showcasing at major festivals, Mandippal has certainly come a long way in his near seven-year career as a musician, establishing himself as one of the hardest working artists in Toronto.
Coming from a family of well-respected Indian musicians and writers (like Mercury Prize winner Talvin Singh), Mandippal has strayed away from traditional Indian folk music, focusing solely on his own blend of poetry and pop/rock. At only 23, he has already made a lasting impression in Toronto’s booming singer/songwriter scene, landing opening spots with major label acts like Jully Black and Sarah Slean, and beloved Indie acts like Justin Nozuka, Pat Robitaille, and Peter Katz.
“Growing up with two older sisters, I’ve had such a diverse selection of music in my life. It’s the only part of me that I’ve really had a passion for, so I never saw myself doing anything other than this. I played every open mic I could find in the city, and slowly started to get my name in the right ears. Now that it’s out there, I want to keep it going.”
In the last three years, Mandippal’s success has certainly started to show.

Do you remember that “high school” feeling?The one where you
see someone new and you know, you just KNOW, that they need to meet
