RAZA JAFRI

I'm Raza. I'm a standup in Austin, Texas. I enjoy making things. I have a list of projects below that you might want to look at.

I built East Austin Comedy Club, an intimate comedy club in Austin. If you're in Austin this is where you can see me perform most weekends.

I made Brown Noise Comedy, a touring show featuring the best brown, desi, South Asian, Arab, Persian (etc.) comedians in America. We've sold out shows in dozens of cities across the US and Canada.

I made Sheesh. It's a food truck behind my club. My brother (Shan Jafri) and I designed the menu with the help of incredible chef and friend, Ryan Cline. We started off with our parents recipes and iterated on them with Ryan's help.

I write frequently and then infrequently. You can find most of it here on substack but also here on GitHub.

I also started making music. I was touring in India and met an incredible musician Jay Krisingar, who I studied under for a brief period. You can find my music here.
