Farah Siraj

“Siraj possesses a strong, flexible voice perfect for negotiating the quarter-tones of both traditional and contemporary Arab music, adding Andalusian flavors from classical music to flamenco, and dipping into pop and bossa nova.” - The Village Voice

Singer Farah Siraj fuses influences of Arabic music, flamenco, jazz, bossa nova, and pop, earning her a place as one of New York's “Summer Stars of Jazz” in 2011 and the nickname “the Norah Jones of the Middle East” by Time Out New York. Farah has performed on some of the world's most prestigious platforms, including the United Nations, Nobel Prize Hall, World Economic Forum, the John F. Kennedy Center, and Lincoln Center. In addition, as musical ambassadress, Farah represents Jordan annually on United Nations World Peace Day. With her diverse ensemble of world-class musicians (on oud, guitar, bass, and percussion,) from Southwest Asia, Europe, the United States and South America, Farah approaches music as a medium for peace and a way to amplify the voices of people around the world who need to be heard.
