Lavi Hoss is also known as Lavi Beats. He was born on February 23rd in 1985 to Persian American family. He was born in Tehran, the capital city of Iran. He is a son to Atta Hoss, his father and Angalia Aghapodis, his mother. He has more of his immediate family as he is an elder brother to Cameron and he has a sister, Paris. Lavi was a student of the Azadi High School in Tehran. Once done with his high school, he got into Tehran University for higher studies.
He has a unique style with music and that is due to his upbringing in an environment influenced by music. He grew up in a musical family and came across many different forms of it. His father was a former Persian singer and his own first experience with instrument came up when he started to play cello at just the age of three. Later, he went on to play the keyboard with which he continued for four years of his life. Until finally he settled for guitar after he had picked it up at thirteen.
However, soon after his liking for the guitar his curiosity got the better of him and he went on to experiment with the drums. The one he worked with was the traditional Persian drum known as the tonbak. Once done with that he moved on to the next instrument, sitar and it can be rightfully said that this exposure to all these amazing instruments is something that had an influence on his music sense. Also, they definitely had a part to play in the development of his musical style.
Lavi Hoss is all about music and it is not only specified to singing. He does a lot more than that! He is a DJ, a record producer, a singer and a songwriter. Alongside singing he continues to play the keyboard and drums. Hence, he has experimented a lot in this field we call music and he seems to have done all of it. Still, this music star like all of us has his own favorites from the field. The ones he would go on to credit being influences on the music he produced. Sam Cook, Bob Marley, Tiesto, Afro Jack, Major Lazor and Stevie Wonder include the ones to name as those icons who influenced Hoss.

He developed in his recent years under the influence of the music in Tehran, but he has never restricted him to that at all. Although traditional EDM music is his roots for music. His vast and diverse CD collection and his songs are a clear proof of that. He claims that the music he listens to is a great influence on the work he produces.
