At the ARIA Music Awards of 2009, she won the award for Best Music DVD and received six nominations at the ARIA Music Awards of 2010 and won Best Independent Release and Best Pop Release for We Are Born and Best Video for the song "Clap Your Hands".

As a writer, Furler has collaborated with many artists including Christina Aguilera, Eminem, David Guetta, Flo Rida, Afrojack, Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Lea Michele, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Kylie Minogue, Leona Lewis, Hilltop Hoods, Katy Perry, Kesha, Rita Ora, Britney Spears, Jessie J, Oh Land, Angel Haze, Celine Dion, and Maroon 5.

All three songs achieved international success. In 2014, her single "Chandelier" became an international success, also reaching number 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. This is the highest ranked solo song by Sia.

Furler was born in Adelaide, South Australia on 18 December 1975. She attended North Adelaide Primary School and Adelaide High School, graduating in 1994.

Her father, Phil B. Colson, was a musician in various bands including Foreday Riders, Rum Jungle, Fat Time, Jump Back Jack, and Mount Lofty Rangers.

Her mother, Loene Furler, is a singer, songwriter, musician, and art lecturer who also provided backing vocals for Mount Lofty Rangers.

Her parents were both in an Adelaide rockabilly band, The Soda Jerx. Furler is the niece of UK-based actor/singer Kevin Colson. Singer/songwriter Colin Hay of Men at Work, though not related, is affectionately known as "Uncle Colin". "Philby" Colson played slide guitar on Men at Work\'s last single, "Everything I Need" from their album Two Hearts, then toured extensively with "The Colin Hay Band" in 1988.

In her 2008 NPR Music interview, she said that she had mimicked other singers while growing up and counts Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder and Sting as her early influences.

In the early 1990s, Furler started gigging in the Adelaide acid jazz scene and at the age of 17, joined the jazz-funk band, Crisp.

Crisp included Furler on vocals, Jesse Flavell on guitar, Jeremy Glover on bass guitar, Sam Langley, Ben Timmis on keyboards, Steve Rooney on drums.

The group released two albums: Word and the Deal (1996) and Delerium (1997).

By 1997, Furler had left Crisp and as a trip hop artist, released her debut solo album OnlySee from an Adelaide garage – which sold 1,200 copies, 1,000 in Adelaide alone. It was produced by former Crisp bandmate Flavell, who also wrote most of the tracks, for Flavoured Records.

During a November 1997 episode of Home and Away in her OnlySee days, Sia guest-starred on the show and sang a song called "How to Breathe" on a beach after Rebecca and Travis are declared husband and wife.

Furler and her boyfriend, Dan, planned to travel together on a world trip. On her way to meet him in London, she stopped off in Thailand. Dan was killed in a traffic accident in London a week before she arrived. She lived in a London boarding house with Dan\'s friends.

In 2007, Furler recalled the impact of Dan\'s death, "We were all devastated, so we got shit-faced on drugs and Special Brew. Unfortunately, that bender lasted six years for me."

2000–2007: Healing is Difficult and Colour the Small OneEdit

In 2000, Furler signed a recording contract with Sony Music\'s sub-label Dance Pool.

While living in London, she performed backing vocals for British jazz funk band Jamiroquai.

On 9 July 2001, she released her second solo album,

Healing Is Difficult, an eclectic mix of R&B and jazz, that was favourably received by critics. All the tracks were written or co-written by Furler and it was co-produced by Furler and Blair Mackichan.

The album included the songs "Drink to Get Drunk" and "Little Man" which both received remixes that became popular in UK nightclubs. The album\'s single Taken for Granted, peaked at Number 10 on the UK Singles Chart for one week, 3 June 2000, and was on the chart for five weeks.

She even performed the song on Top of the Pops. The album\'s lyrics dealt with her boyfriend\'s death, "I was pretty fucked up after Dan died. I couldn\'t really feel anything. I could intellectualise a lot of stuff; that I had a purpose, that I was loved, but I couldn\'t actually feel anything." Unhappy with the promotion of the album, Furler fired her manager, left Sony Music and signed with Go! Beat Records, a subsidiary of UMG.

At the APRA Awards of 2002, Furler won the \'Breakthrough Songwriter\' category alongside Brisbane pop duo Aneiki\'s Jennifer Waite and Grant Wallis.

In 2003, Furler released an extended play, Don\'t Bring Me Down, its lead track was used over the closing titles of the French film, 36 Quai des Orfèvres. Her second album, Colour the Small One, was released in Australia on 19 January 2004 and in Europe later that year.

This downtempo album had Furler employ a mixture of acoustic instruments and electronic backing to her material, which led to comparisons to artists such as Dido and Sarah McLachlan.

It featured "The Bully", which was a collaboration with American musician Beck Hansen.

Two further songs were co-written with Beck and recorded, but have yet to be released. Colour the Small One spawned the singles "Breathe Me" and "Where I Belong". The latter was earmarked for the Spider-Man-2 soundtrack, its cover depicts Furler dressed in a Spider-Man costume.

However, owing to a record label conflict, it was withdrawn.

Six tracks on the album had been co-written with her bass guitarist, Samuel Dixon.

In early 2005, Furler left Go! Beat Records, disappointed at the company\'s poor promotion of the album, and the failure of the label\'s U.S. counterpart to pick up the record. She relocated to New York City. Meanwhile, "Breathe Me" appeared on the series finale of the U.S. HBO television series Six Feet Under and the broadcast of the 2006 Victoria\'s Secret Fashion Show. It also was used in an episode of the BBC show Luther (Season 1, Episode 5). The track had been licensed to Astralwerks – which also produces the Six Feet Under soundtracks – and Colour the Small One was given an American release by that label in early 2006.

Furler toured the U.S. throughout that year, promoting the album and cross-promoting the Six Feet Under season five DVD release. The U.S version of the album features four bonus tracks: "Broken Biscuit" (from the Don\'t Bring Me Down EP), "Sea Shells" (the B-side to "Breathe Me" in the UK) and two remixes of "Breathe Me" by Four Tet and Ulrich Schnauss.
