There is one basic principle behind all of Santhush's live performances - less is more. He has the ability to inject passion into a live appearance with the least effort. He is a master of nuance, picking and choosing delicate expressions to suit the mood and feel of a song. When on stage Santhush carries himself with an unusual calmness, like a man who has made peace with both himself and his music. It's this unusual calm and mystery that thrills audiences leaving them wondering what to expect next from the tall debonnair vocalist.

Santhush's musical influences are varied. He claims Eric Clapton and the late Ray Charles as two of his personal favourites. Being raised on opera and jazz this comes as no surprise. Santhush advises that much of the Sri Lankan flavour in his music is influenced by Rukantha Gunatillake and Pundit Amaradeva. It is such musical tastes that allow the young singer to seamlessly blend together classical and modern music styles.

Santhush's is fully transparent about his future career goals. "We want to rock the world" he smiles with boyish enthusiasm. "We have our sights on the Indian market. Following that we will certainly look at the Arabian Gulf and the rest of Europe like the UK etc..." Given the vocalist's skillful musicianship, BNS's efforts will certainly not go unrewarded.
