Fares Karam was born in Jezzine, in Southern Lebanon to a modest working-class Christian family. His father was a farmer and his mother worked as a teacher in the local school for their village.
He has one sister, Madonna, with whom he maintains a very close relationship. Karam grew up in the mountainous areas of Lebanon, and later attributed his song "Jabali" to this experience.
He cooperated with Rotana Records.
His musical style is linked more closely to Dabke. His live band plays many of his songs with a large tabl (drum). This has helped make his music very popular in Lebanese nightclubs where patrons like to dance the Dabke.
