Kjetil André Mulelid (born 04.02.1991) is a Norwegian piano player, composer and educator based in Copenhagen (DK) / Trondheim (N). He mainly works with jazz and rythmic improvised music, but also folk and pop music. He grew up in the small village Hurdal, Akershus, and started playing the piano when he was 9 years old after he heard Chopin on the stereo.

Then he took one year at the Høyskolen i Staffeldstgate before he went to do a bachelor degree in jazz performance at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim (NTNU, Jazzlinja).

He has played concerts in Scandinavia, Poland, France, Germany, England, The Faroe Islands, Serbia and USA. In 2013 the quartet Wako represented The Faroe Islands in the Young Nordic Jazz Comet. Mulelid has played and worked with many great musicians as Arve Henriksen, Kirsti Huke, Ola Kvernberg, Eirik Hegdal, Nils-Olav Johansen, Frøydis Grorud, Eirik Johannessen and Petter Vågan.
