Blog-achella 08: The goofy chick

Now for a singer with a very unique voice... and comedy stylings...

Sia



Who she is: Aussie singer who got her first big break singing for Zero 7, her second when her song "Breathe" was used for the final scene of "Six Feet Under" and her third when she broke her arm falling out of a tree. Boy, that was a corker there, huh... hey, it ain't all comedy gold...

What she sounds like: Well, her solo work really does sound a lot like Zero 7, but is that just because she sings for Zero 7? Discuss...

Sia - Beautiful Calm Driving (ysi)




What I think: Caught her live once at an Amoeba in-store, and even moreso than by her singing, I was struck by what a goofy chick she is. Seriously, she practically does stand-up comedy between songs, then busts out with this super emotional singing. Very odd. But regardless, she is a fantastic singer and will most likely do some of your fave Zero 7 hits as well... bonus points!
