New Full-Length Releases



Sia - 1000 Forms of Fear

Sia Furler is an Australian singer and songwriter who began her career as a solo artist and frequent collaborator to Zero 7. She's also made a name for herself as a songwriter and has written hits for Katy Perry, Rihanna, Britney Spears, among many others. 1000 Forms of Fear is her sixth album and a return after a four year hiatus from recording new music. She's turned her hit-writing capabilities on herself and has become a hit artist herself; something many songwriters fail to do.
