She was 93. She was a a poet and a writer, a courageous woman with a heart of gold that had been broken over and over again throughout her life. To say she had a tough life is an understatement. But she worked hard and gave love to those around her and in return she was loved very much. She took me to the park when I was just a baby. Every morning, she would get me from my crib while my parents were sleeping, clean me up and put me in my stroller and take me for a walk through the park. She would tell me later that I was so little that she didn't think taking me to the park would leave an impression on me. I bet she was wrong because I love parks and the outdoors in the wee early morning hours. Perhaps my love of nature and the outdoors started then, although I must admit, that I have lost touch with nature for a long long time now. She bought me my first bicycle when I was a kid in Iran and my first bathing suit in America. She was kind and generous with her money though she never had much of it. She spent what little she had on her family and those she loved and hardly anything on herself. She gave so much love to those around her, shed so many tears for us and prayed with all her heart although her fate had been shaken after the revolution.She cooked the best foods and made the best "sharbats". She was very well-read, wrote a lot and recited long verses of poetry even at her very old age. She finished her autobiography a few years ago which is several hundred pages, hand-written. When she was a teenager, she had dreamed of becoming a pilot but her father's cold response had put an end to that dream. Today around 4 PM, while her daughters were holding her hands and kissing her face and forehead, she took her very last breath. Her very last breath. And she took with it, years of memories, of tears, of laughter, of sadness and happiness, of love and loss and hope. She was a real lady. A lady years ahead of her time.I already miss you grandma. I already miss you! RIP. Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanijoo

Ba Salam En Mosahebeye Shahrzad Sepanlou Ba Majaleye Persian Mirror mibashad ke baraye Sale 2005 mibashad:

the music of shahrzad sepanlou
Born in Tehran, Shahrzad Sepanlou was a fan of music from an early age. Through her artist parents, Shahrzad was able to cultivate her love and has become today one of the most favorite of contemporary artists in the industry. With 2 albums under her belt, Shahrzad is getting ready for a third and fans all over are ecstactic.
We had a chance to find this singing beauty to find out what lies beneath this talented artist.
PersianMirror: Tell us about yourself.
Shahrzad Sepanlou: I grew up in the Amir Abaad area until I was 12. Then we moved to Europe for a year and afterwards came to America. I grew up in a household where literature and music were very important parts of our daily lives. My parents are both writers and growing up around them and their friends was a big influence on my appreciation of arts and music.
I live in Studio City, California, near Los Angeles. I guess finding a good deal in this crazy California real estate market influenced my decision to live here for now! I like living in Los Angeles but it’s sometimes too hectic and fast for me. I wish I had a house in the countryside where I could just get away sometimes.
I am a pessimist and an optimist. Sometimes I think about the uselessness of life and at other times, I think that life has so many beautiful offerings that I get overwhelmed with joy!
"I am a pessimist and an optimist." Shahrzad
PM: Can you tell us a little about how you got started in music??
SS: A lot of people are already aware that I started my professional singing career with the original Silhouette. Then I decided to do a solo album once I quit the band. I always loved singing since I was a kid and I got a chance to do it professionally in the Persian music industry.
PM: Who were some of the biggest influence of your interpretation of the music?
SS: Definitely Googoosh. I really loved and still love her charm, sincerity and passion in her vocal and on-camera performances. Everything thing she does and every note she sings engages you unlike any other artist I know.
PM: What would a big dream-come-true for you in this field?
SS: To have a concert in Iran where all the fans who’ve sent me emails from far away in the past few years can all be there.
PM: What are some of your pet peeves?
SS: People who can’t see anything besides their immediate surroundings (shallow people). Also, an entirely different type of pet peeve is noise from the street. When I’m at home, I want it to be quiet and relaxing but living in a condo in a busy street has made me very irritable with constant street noises such as the trash truck, people honking their horn, helicopters flying over the freeway, etc.
PM: What are some of the upcoming projects or events that you have planned in the near future?
SS: I want to work on my third album and I already have a couple of song-writers and lyricists in mind. I may produce this album myself so I can be completely free on what types of songs to sing. I am also in talks with a great artist to participate in his concerts in the upcoming months. We’ll see.
PM: Desert Island. Three things. What will you take?
SS: I assume you mean objects vs people. So the first would be chocolate and lots of it. Marc Lavoine’s CD. Portable computer with internet access.

Q and A with SHAHRZAD SEPANLOU
A talented young woman with a passion for music. From singing in front of a mirror as a child, to being in the hottest girl group, Silhouette, and finally to a successful solo career, Shahrzad has it all… Tell us about your background and how you got involved in the music industry. From as far back as I remember, I’ve loved singing and performing for people. I was three years old when I would sit in front of the mirror with a pen in my hand and sing to an imaginary audience. Later on, I was constantly writing poetry or coming up with songs that I would perform for my friends and at parties. Music has always been an escape for me especially during the tough times I lived through in Iran, you know, the revolution and the war… When I moved to the U.S. and after finishing high school, I became really interested in singing professionally. I tarted doing backup for a couple of American college bands but I just didn’t feel too comfortable with the whole music scene at that time. Then I went to UCLA and after graduation met the girls that would form the original Silhouette. It was purely by chance that I met them at a party. They were looking for a third girl to complete the band and we hit it off. It felt so comfortable to hang out and sing with them and that’s when it all started. Your parents are both artists, how did this influence your career? I guess I’ve imposed more discipline and expectation on myself because they are pretty tough critics. It has really been both a positive and negative thing. Positive because of our collaborations on my album and because of everything that I have learned from both of them in my life. You see, I was exposed to the arts including music, poetry and theatre almost everyday through my parents and their friends. I am so grateful for that because it was such a magical childhood and affected my life and my decision to be a singer. But there’s one negative aspect to having artist parents, especially writers; I tend to second guess myself too much and sometimes I am reluctant to take risks so I don’t disappoint them. But I’ve been slowly breaking away from that. Tell us about your experience in the music industry as a young female artist. Well, the music business is still a male-dominated business so a woman has to work very hard and demand respect from people in order to be respected. Basically for a woman to succeed and be taken seriously, she needs to have a very professional and diplomatic attitude. But altogether, it’s been better than I expected. While it is true that women are still viewed in a sexual way and are perhaps not taken too seriously in business dealings, I’ve also been very pleasantly surprised by all the professionalism I’ve seen among my colleagues. I’ve met and worked with many fantastic and talented people (men and women) who are in this business for the sake of music and to make lasting and meaningful collaborations. You recently had a new addition to your family! In what ways have you been inspired musically? Little Leyli Fassihi came into our lives 17 months ago. She is the love of my life. I sing for her and I am thrilled that she’s such a musical baby. She automatically moves her body anytime music is playing somewhere. Having her in my life has made me a stronger woman and I am more confident in myself. I was never the kind of girl that dreamed her whole life of becoming a mom but now that I am, I can’t imagine life without her. Musically, I am more inspired than ever to keep singing and to make better music. I owe it to her and I want her to be proud of me when she’s older. And seeing how she loves music so much, I am hoping we can do mother and daughter duet at some oint in the future! How would you describe your style of music? I usually tell everybody that it’s pop music but with a more subdued or serious feel. I am naturally drawn to heavier lyrics and moody songs and I guess those are the elements that I tend to incorporate in my music. Upcoming projects or albums? I am working on an “International” album with an Italian producer friend of mine, Giampiero Scuderi, which I hope will be available for distribution soon. The album consists of songs with Persian, English and French lyrics and the music itself has a Middle-Eastern and European ambience. I also just finished a song called “az man taa man” which is very personal to me and which I will sing live for the first time at my pcoming concert at UC Irvine. Which Iranian (or American) artists/musicians have inspired you? As far as Iranian artists, I’ve always been inspired by Googoosh and I adore her. I also love Farhad’s music and think that the album “Jom’e” (Friday) is a masterpiece. I also have a huge amount of respect for artists such as Dariush, Ebi, Marjan and Faramarz Aslani. There are so many to list and those were a few. As far as non-Iranians, there are way too many to mention. But I can tell you that John Lennon’s life and music have always fascinated me. In my book, he was a true artist. Any final words/ messages for the Iranian-American community? The Iranian-American community is such a strong and successful community and we should keep supporting and loving one another so we can reach even higher. I hope that we can continue making each other proud. Finally, I would love to see you all at my concert! facts about shahrzad Did you know... Shahrzad was a die hard fan of George Michael when she was a teenager. She lived in Paris and England for a total of one year. In high school she worked at Taco Bell. Shahrzad has had small parts in plays and short films t high school and while she was a student at UCLA. The first day she moved into the dorms at UCLA, he performed Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” at her elcome Karaoke party, and she brough the house down. She used to sing jazz songs at a restaurant called The Atlas Club” in Los Angeles. Her all time favorite movie is “Westside Story” Stats Place of Birth: ehran Residence: os Angeles, CA Sign: corpio Education: achelor’s in ociology from CLA Favorite Persian dish: hormeh Zabzi We appreciate your time and wish you all the best during your term as the Mayor of Costa Mesa.Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanjoo

These pictures were all taken in the 70's and early 80's in Tehran. Looking through them, besides feeling nostalgic, I find it amusing that in one photo I have a conservative black scarf on and in the other a revealing black ballet suit probably within the same year.
But that's how life in Tehran always was. Black and white. Sad and happy. Exciting and boring. Peaceful and nerve-racking. Both extremes everyday. I miss those days >>> Listen to my song "Az man taa man" [Lyrics & Music: Kambiz Mirzaei. Arrangement: Giampiero Scuderi]
I miss the excitement of life. I can't figure out if it was really my life that was exciting or the perception of my life. Maybe all children find life exciting. I like to look at these pictures from time to time, only to remember life as it looked through my eyes as a child in Tehran while playing with my dolls and laughing with my friends. We all grow up too soon.

Happy New year to all those who celebrate this time of year. It is a very magical time indeed. I love Christmas time, although this year it hasn't felt much like Christmas since I didn't shop for gifts or set up a tree. Hopefully next year I will be more pro-active. The truth is my heart belongs to the Persian new year and March 21st. So I will certainly make more of a big deal for that. But each festive time of the year has its own beauty and magic.So now it's a good time to be thankful for the good things that have happened this year, and to learn lessons from the bad things that have happened. And I also want to thank all the fans that have been so kind and supportive including Ali Yazdanijoo and Soheil who still think of me even though I have not been able to be in contact with them directly. I hope they forgive me and I wish them and everybody a wonderful and happy new year. Love,Shahrzad. Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanijoo

So long has passed since I updated this blog. I guess I'm not into writing much lately. nor reading much! which is not good. It's a phase, it must be!Some observations:1. sad to see the 25th anniversay of John Lennon and be reminded of what the music world lost.2. Leyli has been very grouchy lately. She's getting her molars and she's killing me with her whining...3. I have decided that I want to live in Europe when I'm old.4. Los Angeles is cold but it's got better weather than 95% of the rest of the world.5. The crash of the airplane in Tehran made me incredibly sad. looking at the pictures of the reporters killed and their families grieving was truly heart-breaking. human life... how much is it worth in Iran?6. it's nice to know that my music has touched some people. It makes me smile when I hear about it.7. I had an interview with Naneh Saleemeh last week and really enjoyed myself. I like her a lot.8. I'm growing my hair out and taking better care of myself since having a baby.9. I am preparing for my upcoming concert and am very excited about it. I can't wait to sing all my songs from my solo albums and a few from silhouette album and of course a couple of Jazz songs.Peace for now!.Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanijoo

We go to the park around 8 in the morning. You sit on the baby swing and I on the bigger one. You look at me and smile and wave your tiny hands and say "hi". I smile at you and then look up at the tall trees surrounding us. And there is the sun peaking its head through the leaves. There is city traffic around us and the smell of greasy food coming from some restaurants. The cool of the night is giving way to a typical hot LA day. I am transported to the past and the future. My mind pictures images , sad and happy. I am thinking of so much...of the park next to my house in Iran and the early morning walks with my brand new sandals that got muddy, of the things I need to do today, of how much you have changed my life. It's a strange mix, this responsibility and undying attention that you need. It makes me tired and resenful at times. But I guess I was always more of a free spirit than a girl waiting to get married and pregnant. But here you are and I am so emotionally tied to you and so affected by you that I finally peacefully surrender. And look forward to our mornings in the park for many days to come... .Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanijoo

Salam Doostan En mosahebeheye Shahrzad Sepanlou dar Radio (The World) hast ke dar Tarikh July 2003 enjam dadeh East va dar rabteh ba Ahang (Azadi) mibashad Hatman bekhanid va lezat bebarid. As we told you earlier, reports from Iran say disturbances have broken out in Tehran. Large crowds of protestors in the Iranian capital were marking the fourth anniversary of student riots.

Many Iranians have escaped the cultural repression that the country's Islamic rulers have imposed since 1979. We learn about one Iranian-born pop singer who'se now plying her trade in Los Angeles.

Shahrzad Sepanlou wears big earrings and once in a while frosted lipstick. She's not your average counter-revolutionary. But Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution made her one.

Sepanlou: "When the revolution happened, and when things changed and pop music became illegal and female singing became illegal in Iran. Well that really limits a lot of things."

Especially if you're a pre-teen with a passion for pop....

Sepanlou: "I loved Madonna, Cyndi Lauper, George Michael, Wham. When I was 11, 12 years old, Michael Jackson rocked my world, so...(laughs)"

Sepanlou and her friends in the Islamic Republic had to buy their Western pop on the black market. The music was their salvation.

Sepanlou: "That's what gave all of us, me and all my friends that gave us the energy and hope to just foreget about what we were going through at that point. just get together, close the door and just blast the music and have a really good time to it."

A track from an album due out next month has undercurrents of the Middle East. But it also shows that Sepanlou had been listening to a lot of Madonna in Iran and itching to leave the country.

Sepanlou: "Around '84, '85, it was getting so difficult. There was so much I wanted to do. For me back then it dressing the way I wanted, or listening to the music I wanted. You know as a kid this is very important for you. If it was 98 degrees we had to wear pants and socks and scarves and you know the thick dress. I had had really enough."

Now that she lives in Los Angeles, Sepanlou flouts the restrictions from her past life. In one of her music videos, Sepanlou superimposes herself over local footage of Iran. She seems to be--impossibly--singing her song "Mirdamad" in public, right there on the streets of Tehran. The video became a hit with Iranians watching satellite TV.

Sepanlou: "It's very lifelike. Some people were like, whoa, were you really in Tehran? But obviously you couldn't be because you're not wearing a scarf."

Sepanlou:"That song is a very nostalgic song. Directly translating one line it says that in 50 years, Mirdamad Boulevard, which is a popular street in Tehran, that that street will think of us, but it will think of us in better days. We hope that it's not in 50 years, that it will be sooner!"

Her father Mohammad Ali Sepanlou wrote Miradamad. He's a well-known poet in Iran. His verses also feature in a song on Shahrzad's new album.

The song is called Azadi, Persian for "freedom". It's a word that's inevitably political in Iran. So Sepanlou says her father opted for some strategic symbolism when he wrote Azadi.

Sepanlou: "The lyrics to Azadi, it really is talking about a little bird. And this little bird is the Iranian people who have gone through so much who have either migrated or are in Iran still. And this little bird, it's asking, this bird, to sing a song, to sing about freedom."

Sepanlou: "It also says you little bird, you're carrying this jewel in your mouth. And the jewel again is symbolic for our culture and our heritage and our experiences and our memories. It's basically saying you have this, so sing it. Show it to the world until we can be free again."

Sepanlou recorded Azadi last month, just as thousands of students started demonstrating in Iran. While she sang it in the LA studio, she says she thought of them. And the chant of 'azadi' felt more relevant than ever. Ba Tashakor Ali Yazdanijoo

I've just started working with a company that produces international artists and compilation CDs. The kind of CDs that they sell at Borders and most other American stores. We recorded a song yesterday. I wrote the lyrics in Farsi with my mom and the song is written by the producer of the album. It's a fun and dancy song, more geared towards an international audience and not so much towards just Iranians or Americans.I'm also recording a couple of songs written by my good friend, Kambiz Mirzaei when I'm in Toronto next month. The songs will go on his compilation cd. They are more mellow and darker and more towards my own taste.I am always at odds within myself about the types of music that I like to work on. I want to try a lot of different styles (never 6/8 though!) and I want to experiment and I'm happy that as I'm working with different song-writers I get to do just that. I think as long as a song sits well with you, that's what matters. I've learned that as soon as something about a song doesn't feel good to you, then just scratch it right there and put it away. If you end up singing it, you'll always be unhappy about it. I trust my own judgement better than the people I work with :)

I look for you

I’m walking down the street
I’m floating through the trees
I’m flying over townWhen it’s pitch black all aroundIn search of you…
I’m swimming past the wavesI’m digging through these caves
I’m gliding with the breezeI’m landing on my kneesIn search of you…I
look for you when I’m feeling down
I look for you when there’s not a sound
I look for you but you can’t be found
I look for youI’m climbing up a hillWhen the moon is lying stillAnd I’m standing on a ledgeWaiting to fall off the edgeIf I find you here at lastWill I wake up from these dreamsWhen I look into your eyesWill you be all that you seemI look for you…I look for you when I’m feeling down…If I find you there at lastWill I wake up from these dreamsWhen I look into your eyesWill you be all that you seemI look for you…I look for you when I’m feeling down…

Face to face with Shahrzd Sepanlou
Shahrzad Sepanlou is one of the best singers of the new generation of Persian music. She released her first solo Album (Our Story) in Summer of 2000 and the tender-velvet-voiced singer described her emotions and feelings through her songs which captured the attention and heart of her audience, and made her fans and critics agree on one thing, she has lots of talent. She is going to release her second album in August 2003 ("1001 Nights" by AVANG Music Co), and we contacted her to ask her few questions about this event. First thing that we noticed is that she does not have only a great talent but she also has a great character, very humble and nice. eshgh e iran: Shahrzad Khanoom salaam, Could you please introduce yourself?
Shahrzad: I was born in Tehran where I grew up in a household where music and the arts were very important to us. My fondest memories are from my childhood in Iran and all the great artists, poets and musicians that I met through my parents. From early on, the arts, particulary music became a focal point of my life. I realized that I loved to sing and entertain and I was encouraged as well by my teachers and friends. I left Iran for America with my family in 1985 during the war between Iran and Iraq. On our way to America, we had to stop over in London and Paris (my favorite city) for a year for residency issues and then we came to California where I started Junior High.
eshgh e iran: What was your feeling when you left the country? What is your feeling in general about your life far from your country?
Shahrzad: I felt very sad and scared and yet I felt relieved and elated in other ways. As a young girl I wanted to have freedom which for me at that time was dressing the way I wanted and listening to the music I wanted without feeling afraid for my life. Now of course I realize that there is a lot more to freedom than just the way you can dress. Freedom ultimately is the luxury to think and express yourself the way you wish in every aspect of life without having to censor yourself for fear of punishment. I had a very hard time the first few years I left Iran especially when things would get difficult for me as a teenager. I missed Iran, my home and my friends tremendously. I felt that I had lost my identity and confidence and felt as though I lived in a daze. Yet, I really appreciated the fact that I enjoyed freedoms and the kind of lifestyle that many other people wish for. So I am always grateful at the same time. Time tends to heal all wounds but I have a strong connection to Iran and always will.
eshgh e iran: I heard that you work at UCLA, are you still there?
Shahrzad: I no longer work at UCLA. With the support of my husband, I actually quit my job a few months ago to concentrate on my music and my second album due to be released this summer. I received my Bachelor's in Sociology from UCLA and worked at the UCLA International Studies office while I was a student. After graduation, I stayed at that office while working on my music career. My work environment was very relaxed and pleasant and my co-workers were very supportive of my music projects so it was a great fit.
eshgh e iran: What was your feeling about your first album? Were you satisfied with it? Tell us about Bolvard Mirdamad and Eteraz. What is the story behind them? When I listened to these two songs I felt I was hearing my heart talking, and I am sure lots of Iranian around the world had the same feeling.
Shahrzad: I like my first album "Our Story" very much because I was able to share my feelings and hopes with people in a medium that I am good at. The songs you hear were picked because they spoke what was really in my heart and I did not think of its commercial aspect at all when I was collaborating on the songs with Mr. Farzin Farhadi. Mirdamad and Eteraz are two songs which really come from the heart. Mirdamad's lyrics are written by my father, Mohammad Ali Sepanlou. It is about Iran and the feelings associated with its cities and streets and people. It's a very nostalgic song. Eteraz, written by Zoya Zakarian voices the frustrations of an immigrant living outside of Iran who is complaining about the wrong judgements that some people inside Iran may have formed about him or her. It's about all of us living outside of Iran and going through our own difficulties and wanting other Iranians inside the country to know that we too don't have the easiest life unlike what they may think.
eshgh e iran: None of your songs has a "Persian Style", why is that?
Shahrzad: Well, I think what we tried to do is to combine middle-eastern/persian sounds and style with more western/jazzy sounds. This came naturally to us, because both me and the producer/song-writer I work with (Farzin Farhadi) have lived both in Iran and America and our music education has consisted of western music. I myself appreciate more eclectric music that uses various instruments and sounds and I like the marriage of eastern and western music very much. In my new album, "1001 Nights", which is to be released in August of 2003 by Avang Music Company, you will see much more of that.
eshgh e iran: Who did you work with for preparing this album?
Shahrzad: The lyricists consisted of Zoya Zakarian, Partow Nooriala (my mother), Mohammad Ali Sepanlou (my father), and Paksima Zakipour who are all wonderful poets/lyricists. The songs were written by Mr. Farzin Farhadi who is a very talented and experimental musician. The direction and the overall sound of the album of course was my own choice and decision. I work very closely with Farzin and provide input throughout the whole process of music making.
eshgh e iran: Who are the singers that you use to listen to? What is your musical taste?
Shahrzad: I listen to a wide and varied range of singers and music. Here are only some of my favorite singers and music in no particular order: The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Googoosh, Dariush, Farhad, Marjan, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Francoise Hardy, Marc Lavoine, Madredeus, Amalia Rodriguez, Paris Combo, Putumayo World Music Series, Cirque du Soleil series, Stan Getz, Joao Gilberto, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Portishead, Olivia Newton-John, Sting, Madonna and many more. I also have a deep appreciation for Classical Music and Jazz and I really enjoy music from around the world. I do listen to contemporary pop music as well to keep in tune with what is in demand and topping the charts but I prefer more alternative and less commercial music myself.
eshgh e iran: I saw that you are working on your new album. When do you think it will be released?
Shahrzad: Yes, my new album should be ready for release in August of 2003 by Avang Music Company. The lyricists I work with will be pretty much the same as last: Partow Nooriala, Mohammad Ali Sepanlou, Paksima Zakipour. I am also working for the first time with Mr. Kambiz Mirzaei who writes lovely lyrics and I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of them. Also, I am using one of the poems of Forough Farrokhzad whose work I love and admire. Of course, I asked for Permission from Ms. Pourran Farrokzad who is Forough's sister. I am working with Farzin Farhadi again on this album. The new album will be somewhat different from "Our Story" in that it will use more ethnic and middle-eastern sounds and instruments and will still combine it with western music. Also, the album consists of a few groovy dance songs as well some beautiful love songs. On the whole, it's a more feminine and uplifiting album.
eshgh e iran: What are the messages that you would like to give to our visitors?
Shahrzad: I just want to thank your viewers for taking the time and reading this interview. I hope that they will enjoy my new album and I look forward to hearing from them by email if they get a chance to visit my web site: Shahrzadmusic.com Finally, from the bottom of my heart, I wish all Iranian people and all people of the world freedom and better times.

Looking through the , I've come across some cool selection of music that I've always enjoyed listening to. So you get a glimpse of my favorites, here are some selections for today.
I love ABBEY with their beautiful melodies and gorgeous voices. Here is one song that I find both happy and sad. Super Trouper
Okay at the risk of appearing "super cheeky", I have to say that there is one song from backscattered boys that I always liked. Again, it has a nice melody and these kids knew how to sing. I don't know what they are doing now but the song I'm talking about is "Show me the meaning of being lonely
Here we get to the masters of music, one of my all time favorites, the one and only "beadles". This is one of their saddest and most gorgeous tunes. Long and Winding Road
Ah, and here we get to the romantic and touching music of Mr. Chris De Burch. Enjoy this nice song, Lady in Red

That's it for today. Will be back with more selections soon.

But it happened. I performed two songs with the great singer "Ebi" at Universal Amphitheater infront of 5000+ people. First we performed my song "Eteraz" which he started by belting out the words: "Kojaye in zameen khodaya, jaye moondane, az in sare donya taa oon sar, ghorbate mane.......". Then the orchestra started playing the song and I walked in and to my happiness was greeted by a very warm applause by the audience. After performing "Eteraz", we moved on to one of his beautiful songs called "Ki Ashkaato paak meekone", which really moved the audience and they once again gave a very strong applause at the end. After Ebi and I shook hands, hugged and I walked out, Ebi told the audience some very nice things about me which I will cherish for as long as I live. Through working on this show with Ebi and interacting with him on a personal basis, I have come to realize that someone can be a great and wildly popular artist and at the same time be a humble, kind and caring individual. And that he truly is. He was so kind and gentle with everybody all around him, from the band members, to backup singers, to his fans. Anyway, it was a magical night last night and I felt at home on the great stage of Universal Amphitheatre.

When Shahrzad came onto the music scene in 1997 as one third of the original female band, Silhouette, she quickly proved herself as a passionate and serious artist. The Album Earth, Wind and Fire together with Silhouettes subsequent U.S. tour was a highly successful achievement for the newly arrived group. In 2000, with her debut solo album Our Story and the release of her videos such as Mirdamad, she further impressed audiences and critics alike and established herself as a visionary singer possessing a tender vocal style and a range of emotions that are expressed unpretentiously in her songs and videos. She was immediately invited to numerous interviews and appearances on Persian Television and Radio Stations and received a number of offers for concerts and performances around the world. The first concert of her tour, scheduled on September 15, 2001 in Irvine, CA, was a sell-out well before the performance. But her plans for touring the States abruptly came to a halt with the events of September 11. She placed the performances on hold and instead began to concentrate on preparing her second album entitled 1001 nights which will be released in August/September of 2003 by Avang Music Company.
As a child, Shahrzad loved to sing and act for friends and family and when alone, performed in front of a mirror or in her backyard for an imaginary audience. Early on, through her mother and father, who are artists, Shahrzad was exposed to a wide variety of music, films, plays and books. Bolstered by those influences, Shahrzad began gravitating towards pop and world music and formed a well-rounded and eclectic musical taste while at the same time taking part in small theatrical and musical productions at her school and community events.
A native of Iran and having moved to Europe and then to America as a teenager, Shahrzad possesses a great amount of love, sensitivity and respect for different cultures, people and art. Shahrzads study of Sociology at UCLA further helped her in understanding and appreciating eclectic and diverse cultures. Her life experiences have exposed her to new musical influences and sounds which she uses for her music and which are particularly heard on her upcoming album.
Shahrzad is always involved with the process of album making. From the lyrics chosen and the musical direction of her albums, to the instruments and arrangements used, she likes to work side by side her present producer/song-writer, Farzin Farhadi, in order to help implement her vision and her direction. She has worked with renowned lyricists and poets such as Zoya Zakarian, Paksima Zakipour, Partow Nooriala (her mother) and M.A. Sepanlou (her father) and is always on the lookout for new and talented artists to work with such as Kambiz Mirzaei whose lyrics appear on one of Shahrzads songs on her new album. In addition to working on Persian music, Shahrzad sings and writes lyrics in English and has been working with an Italian producer on an album consisting of world music. The project is still in the works and will be on Shahrzads list of priorities to accomplish. Shahrzads tour of the U.S., Europe and the Middle East for 1001 Nights will commence with the release of her album in late 2003
