Biography
The youngest of a family of 8 children, Sheila Majid attended school in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She was married to Roslan Aziz, the producer of her previous albums, but has since divorced him. Sheila was remarried on June 3, 2003 to Hasridz Murshim Hashim Abdullah, better known as Acis, who was a keyboardist with one of the popular rock bands in the 80s, Gersang. Sheila has two children from her earlier marriage and two from her current marriage.
She started to learn the piano at the age of four. When she was 17, she sang at a friend's party and was spotted by a music producer, who invited her to do a demo. Sheila auditioned for Roslan Aziz and was given a contract in 1982. However, it took another three years before she released her first album in 1985 Dimensi Baru, which subsequently went gold. With Emosi, released one year later, Sheila won the Indonesian BASF Award for Best Female R&B Artist in 1987; an award that was never before won by a non-Indonesian. Her success in Indonesia was followed by a 1988 nationwide tour.
