Sexy & Successful: Farahri

Jul 29, 2013

Singer

She is a rising star for sure. Ottawa-born and Toronto-based Farahri has already begun wowing Canadian audiences and is sure to win over global audiences as well. Although she sang in various school and community choirs as a young girl, Farahri’s first break in the music industry came when her manager introduced her to Canadian rapper Choclair.

Together, the two created the hot single, “Dance the Night Away” which continues to steam up dance floors. The track, just like Farahri, is unique, beautifully blending English and Hindi lyrics with seductive pop and reggae dancehall beats. But it doesn’t just stop there—the singer also sings in Swahili, Spanish, Arabic and Jamaican Patois. This year, Farahri is concentrating on the release of her first album, Farahri Volume 1, set to come out this year. Just like the motorized masterpiece that her name brilliantly resembles, the singer is also revving up her own brand as the face of AMA Swiss Watch Company.

A physiotherapist by trade, she continues to be passionate about fitness and wellness. Although she plans to scale back as her music career takes off, she hopes to incorporate healthcare into her future aspirations. Being multi-talented and multi-layered is what Farahri is all about. Forget the speed limit. Farahri is setting out to break all records.
