“Our aim is to craft a vibrant, immersive environment where guests can lose themselves in the rhythm and energy of each night.”
Through a blend of live performances and themed music nights, Hell ensures that each musical selection stays true to Faena’s mission of delivering transformative artistic experiences. From expertly curated playlists to live performances, the musical programming in The Living Room combines classic and contemporary sounds, turning every evening into a unique experience.
The Living Room’s style draws on the sophistication of a jazz lounge, the energy of a speakeasy, and the elegance of Miami’s modern nightlife, offering guests a space to unwind, connect, and celebrate. Throughout the season, The Living Room hosts music nights that invite guests to step into an ambiance where every note and beat enhances the night. Resident performers are carefully chosen to ensure the utmost entertainment at The Living Room lounge. This November, resident singer EnVee, a Cuban-born, Miami-raised vocalist, will light up the lounge with her signature style that blends influences from Celia Cruz to Frank Sinatra. Meanwhile, New York City siren Rocky Lanes, known for her scintillating performances at The Box and fresh from her dazzling acts in Allura Cabaret at Faena Theater, brings her multicultural flair, blending the nostalgic charm of a speakeasy performer with a modern, futuristic edge, during November and December over Miami Art Week.
“It’s a place where music, ambiance, and artistry converge to create an unforgettable Miami evening,” says Hell.
