In order not to get bored, she organized a "home stage", imitating her favorite performers in front of a mirror.

At 17, Furler formed a group with other young talents, which they named The Crisp. Under the leadership of Sia, two albums were released: - Word and the Deal and Delirium. After the release of her debut records, the singer decided to pursue a solo career.
