Early life
Visvanath was born in Delhi, but grew up with living between England, Zambia, Bombay, and Hong Kong with his family due to his father's job at HSBC Bank. He began playing the piano at age 7 and the guitar at age 13.

Career
In 2014, Visvanath was named to Acoustic Guitar’s “30 Great Guitarists Under 30 list”.

In 2015, Visvanath released his first album, Orion; which All About The Rock gave a 9 out of 10 rating and called, “an exceptional collection of electro-acoustic songs that are both emotional and uplifting.”

In 2016, Visvanath performed a 17-city tour for his project, The Lost Cause, which was released as an album in 2018. The Lost Cause was selected by Rolling Stone as one of the "Best Indian Albums of 2018".

In 2022, Visvanath released his EP, Demons, which A Humming Heart granted an 8/10 rating and wrote was, "darker, more deliberate and replete with renewed vulnerability, every one of the four tracks on the EP takes Dhruv’s musical purpose of “healing”, further and further as he faces his fears with every line."

In 2023, after being discovered by country musician, Jimmie Allen, Visvanath competed on My Kind of Country, an Apple TV+ singing competition set in Nashville, Tennessee. Visvanath ranked in the final four contestants on the show.
