He has performed live concerts in different cities around Iran and in other countries, including Germany and the United States.

Born in 1979, Reza Sadeghi was raised in Bandar Abbas, Hormozgan, and then moved to Tehran at the age of 5. He was a close friend of former domestic footballer Ali Ansarian, who he befriended in primary school.

Reza Sadeghi’s first spouse died in a car crash in which he was left paralyzed and was required to use an assistive cane for the rest of his life, including during concerts, where he usually rests besides a cane. Since the crash, Sadeghi has decided to appear in public in fully black clothing. Due to this, he is known as Siah Poosh (lit. who wears black, or man in black). Many of his compositions are based around the color black, including his best-known song Meshki Rang-e Eshghe (Black is the Color of Love).During Sadeghi’s Germany tour, he met and proposed to an Iranian resident of Germany. Together, they have two girls named Tiara and Viana, aged 7 and 4 respectively.
