Sunil received his Bachelor's Degree in Music with departmental honors at Sonoma State University in Northern California. He has studied with world class musicians like Grammy Award-nominated guitarist Andre Bush, international recording artist Peppino D'Agostino, and former Poncho Sanchez Band pianist and director Charles Otwell.

Sunil was born on March 25, 1970 in Glendale, CA and grew up in Los Angeles and Orange County. He moved to the Northern California Bay Area in 1991, and is much happier living in the land of forests and rugged coasts than overdeveloped and out-of-touch Southern CA.
