In 1979, when the revolution took place in Iran, he and his family emigrate to Portugal.In 2005, Mazgani was considered by the French magazine Les Inrockuptibles as one of the best 20 new European artists. His debut album, Song of the New Heart, released in 2007, contains 13 songs sung in English. Song of the New Heart was released to critical acclaim. Mazgani’s strong charismatic stage presence and delivery immediately established him as one of the most respected and sought after performers in his home territory. In 2009, netlabel OptimusDiscos1 in Portugal released the Tell the People EP, produced by Pedro Gonçalves of Dead Combo. Also in 2009, Mazgani came third in the International Songwriting Competition, AAA category, with the song \"Somewhere Beneath This Sky\"3; the competition judges included Tom Waits, Robert Smith, and other alternative music notables. Tell The People was released as Mazgani’s first international approach, “Ladies and Gentlemen introducing… Mazgani, which featured all five EP tracks alongside five tracks from his debut album.

It was produced by Dead Combo's Pedro V. Goncalves and Helder Nelson. The record hit no. 17 on the Portuguese charts. Mazgani toured extensively in several European territories, playing festivals in the Netherlands, Italy and France, as well as shows in Spain, Denmark and Sweden. These live performances were documented by Rui Pedro Tendinha in his road movie “The Road to Mazgani”.
