About Sia
Sia is the songwriter who became one of the biggest pop artist in the world, without compromising her integrity or artistry. Her music is a magnificent journey through spellbinding soundscapes, mystical and magical pop music of the highest quality. Epic and sublime while intimate and emotional. Having written for the likes of Beyoncé, Rihanna and David Guetta she then made her big break with the monster hit Chandelier in 2014 and the following album 1000 Forms of Fear topped the lists all around the world and her hotly anticipated new album – This Is Acting – will be released January 29th. Choosing anonymity, Sia’s focus has always been on the music and those lucky enough to see her perform live is a rare pleasure. Way Out West festival welcomes Sia to the stage in Slottsskogen for her first ever performance on Swedish soil and European festival performance.
