KARLOS relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada and joined a dance group called HYPNOTIX, then a dance a group called FORMALITY. KARLOS says “dancing with the crews, really taught me a lot about performing. Dancing in a crew teaches you about team work…”

At the age of 18, KARLOS had a tough decision to make. Either go to the army, like his parents wanted him to or stay in Las Vegas to pursue his entertainment career. KARLOS auditioned for AMERICAN IDOL, recorded his most popular song “YES SIR”, and had shows booked. KARLOS didn’t want to leave and miss the opportunity to be a star. A couple of nights a week KARLOS and his crew members would go to the MANDALAY BAY hotel/casino where a live band played and danced till the set ended.

Everyone can relate to that.

KARLOS is giving the people what they have been missing. Originality. “I’m original! My own beats, no samples, my own lyrics, and my own sound” Up next for KARLOS FARRAR is an episode on 106 and PARK. He will be performing for WILD OUT WEDNSDAY.
