Morteza Pashaei (Persian: مرتضی پاشایی; 11 August 1984 – 14 November 2014) was an Iranian musician, composer, and pop singer.
Born and raised in Tehran, Pashaei studied graphic design and had been interested in music since his childhood, when he began playing guitar. Less than two decades later, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer in 2013 and hospitalized at Tehran's Bahman Hospital on 3 November 2014. Chemotherapy was administered for the aggressive cancer, but the attempt to slow the cancer failed. His health deteriorated and he died on 14 November 2014, aged 30.
