Early life

Chavoshi was born in Khorramshahr, Iran. Chavoshi's family is ethnically Kurdish from Kurdistan province. His family migrated to Mashhad. He finished his education in Mashhad .[3]

Career

Chavoshi began his music career after he finished school and military service.[4] His 2008 album Ye Shakhe Niloufar (a lotus sprout) received permission to be released legally. The CD later became the biggest legally sold CD within Iran by selling over one million legal non-bootleg copies.[5] In Yek Shakheh Niloofar, alongside his new producer, Chavoshi experimented with a new style that was more towards the rock music genre while including traditional Persian instruments.[6] In 2010, Chavoshi made his new album Jakat (Jacket), which had many more up-tone, passionate melodies and lyrics.[7] The album started with an upbeat melody in the style of "Bandari" with southern Iranian dialect which caused a small shock to his listeners.

Chavoshi produced the majority of the songs on the album while the professional producer Shahab Akbari produced two and Ahari produced three.[8]

He released Greedy (his seventh album) in 2011. In 2012 Parcham-e Sefid (White Flag) was released by TDH Company as the fourth album of his career under the law. Also in 2012, Again Del Seda, the fourth Mohsen Chavoshi's group album, was released by Besharat Company which contained one track of Mohsen, and it became a hit track. He released Man Khod An Sizdaham ('I Myself Am The Thirteen') in 2013. Chavoshi released Paroye Bi Ghayegh ('Boatless Oar') in October 2014 and broke album sales records in Iran at 1393.[9] Mohsen Chavoshi is called Special Music Man in Iran.[10]

Personal life

Chavoshi has three brothers and two sisters.[11] He was married in March 2009 and has a son named Zankow.[11]
