While there, he met his roommate and future collaborator, Ananth Menon, who introduced him to rock music, and taught him the guitar.

A few years later, during which he composed for a few more films and set up a studio in his house, Vedanth rediscovered songs from the Bhakti movement.

This eventually led to the germination of his first album, Mati Kahe (2007), which contains songs from the saints and poets of the Bhakti movement.

Wanting to concentrate on the works of Kabir, he read translations of his couplets and listened to renditions of his songs by Kumar Gandharva.

[4][5] In addition to Suno Bhai, Vedanth and Bindhu Malini, frequently perform together, including at the annual Kabir Yatra in Madhya Pradesh.

Vedanth collaborated with several musicians for his second album, including flautist Navin Iyer, and kanjeera-player BS Purushotaman.

[6] He has also played the guitar on Bombay Jayashri's album, Kannamma, and composed the score for contemporary dancer Anita Ratnam's production, Faces, Ma3Ka, Million Sitas among others.

[7][10][11][12] Vedanth has a diverse set of influences ranging from Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Eagles, Beatles, Allman Brothers, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra to TR Mahalingam, Ilayaraja, AR Rahman, Ustad Amir Khan, Pt Bhimsen Joshi and Kabir and Meera.
