Shortly before the Revolution in 1979, Shohreh left Iran to perform in a series of concerts in the United States and, due to restrictions imposed on entertainers by the new leadership, she was not able to return.

The yearning for Iran in Shohreh's music established a strong solidarity amongst the struggling Iranians who found comfort in her songs.

At the turn of the millennium, Shohreh continued releasing more albums, Ghesseh Goo, Saayeh, Atr, Safar, Pishooni, and Havas.

[citation needed] In 2008, Shohreh held a concert at Kodak Theatre to mark the release of her CD "Ashegham".

After "Ashegham" Shohreh released Esrar, Maloomeh, Dooset Daram Naro, Bargard and Shabet Bekheir.
