The Malladi Brothers, Sriram Prasad and Ravi Kumar, are among the premier Carnatic vocalists of their generation, celebrated for their deep-rooted classical discipline, honed under the tutelage of illustrious gurus. The brothers hail from a family steeped in music; they were initiated into the world of Carnatic music by their grandfather, Malladi Srirama Murthy, and then further nurtured in artistry under the guidance of Sri Voleti Venkatesvarulu.

Their performances exhibit an exquisite blend of rich patanthara (lineage), scholarly approach, and a vibrant presentation style that resonates with audiences of all ages. With a repertoire that encompasses varnams, kritis, and thillanas in various ragas and talas, the Malladi Brothers have become prominent figures in the world of Indian classical music, particularly the Carnatic tradition. Their albums, such as "Ragaanjali," "Guru Upadesham," and the live recordings from their concerts, display the vocalists' adaptability, technical prowess, and their deep devotion to the art form. The brothers are also credited for their innovative interpretations while staying true to the classical tenets of Carnatic music. Through their music, they continue to enthrall listeners, drawing them into the spiritual and emotional depths of this ancient South Indian tradition.
