Jaïr Faria is a rising artist based between Los Angeles and Amsterdam. With a warm, instantly recognizable voice and a sound that blends pop, neo-soul, and indie rock, he brings raw emotion and personal stories into every song. His music shifts naturally between light and dark, often reflecting queer identity and lived experience in a way that feels honest and relatable.
His debut EP, Just As Ï Remember, released in late 2024, introduced Jaïr’s unique perspective to a growing audience. The project blends vulnerability with playful touches—including a subtle reference to his own name in the title track—and quickly found traction online, especially on TikTok where his performances connected with fans around the world.
On stage, Jaïr has made an impact at major festivals like Lowlands and Down The Rabbit Hole. In 2024, he won De Grote Prijs van Nederland, the country’s most prestigious prize for emerging artists. He’s also been featured on national platforms such as VPRO On Stage and NPO Radio 2’s Muziekcafé.
His work is beginning to gain attention internationally as well. In 2024, Jaïr earned a Golden Ticket during Hollywood Week on American Idol, and both labels and fellow artists abroad have started to take notice. With a clear vision and a sound that feels both fresh and deeply personal, Jaïr Faria is just getting started.
