This album, rejected by Iranian music producers for its unconventional lyrics and melodies, became a success soon after its launch.
Referred to as the 'Voice of Women' in the Iranian community, Shirazi's lyrics are colored by passionate feminist tones, love, compassion and universal human stories.
With Kamran Afay, Ziba's thesis turned into a book, Iranian Diaspora Identities: Stories and Songs, published by Rowman and Littlefield in 2020.
The book contains eighteen stories and monologues of diaspora journeys performed by Shirazi during 2009-2019 in theatres, libraries, university campuses and other venues.
In 2014, Shirazi staged her first musical production, Spring Love, at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
