Farao live at The Waiting Room

Event information

Farao is the musical alter ego of Norwegian producer and vocalist Kari Jahnsen, who crafts a lush sonic realm where smooth 90s R&B, sensual 80s disco, ambient spiritual jazz, and shimmering layers of zithers intertwine. Guided by her warm, ornate production, vintage synth collection, and striking vocal arrangements, Farao’s live performance draws audiences into a dreamlike, rhythmic landscape—imagine Janet Jackson meeting Alice Coltrane. Having captivated crowds at Roskilde, SXSW, Øya, and Green Man, Farao delivers a show that feels intimate yet expansive, contemporary yet timeless.
