Gresha Schulling (born 1983, Colombo) is a Sri Lankan musician. She has been hailed as a rising star from the the world of popular music in South Asia.

She comes from a distinguished musical family from Sri Lanka. Her aunt was even chosen to sing with the Sri Lankan pop group The Jetliners but decided to decline the offer. Gresha was educated in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia at the Continental School, and in Sri Lanka. She took to music while she was in Saudi Arabia and even won a 'battle of the bands' contest in her school.

Sri Lankan mega star Gresha Schuilling who was appointed an Ambassador for Autism by the Autism Awareness Campaign UK and Sri Lanka has released her debut Christmas single, 'Cold Cold Night' in the United Kingdom.

'Cold Cold Night' was written by the distinguished Sri Lanka born singer/songwriter Nimal Mendis and his son Paul Marie Mendis who live in the UK.

Gresha Schuilling is tipped for international stardom. The BBC said she was attempting a Christmas Number One in the charts.

She has been working hard to raise the profile of autism and Asperger's Syndrome in her island home.

Gresha said: “Autistic is the adjective of a development disorder of the brain, NOT a definition of who a person is! Educate yourselves and others on this disorder more common that Down Syndrome or cystic fibrosis. It is 4 times more common in boys than in girls and is said to be as common as one in every 250 children born in recent years. It is our duty as people who have been given the talent and opportunity to do everything we can to increase awareness of Autism. Ignorance in this case is as far from bliss as it can get.”

This is music history - Gresha Schuilling is the first ever Sri Lankan musician to release a Christmas single in the UK.
