Jalayeri was born on June 16, 1990, in Mashhad, Iran. He began exploring music and photography in his childhood, supported by his parents and tutored by his father, a photographer. He was drawn to the dotar, a traditional instrument that became central to his artistic identity. Jalayeri is a folklore musician, vocalist, and plays the dotar and piano. His work blends traditional Persian and Kurdish melodies with contemporary styles, creating innovative folklore-pop music.
