Shahram was born in Iran in 1955, but is now based in Los Angeles, USA. His career started in Iran, but in 1985, like so many Iranian artists, left the country and restarted his career overseas. Coming from a family of musicians and entertainers it is not strange that he went in the direction of singing. His first album was released in 1978, "Shahre Setareh" and untill 2007 he released no less than 16 albums, with his 2007 release "Ghasam" as the latest.
