Look Sia's not going on tour but she might do some 'gigs' for dog charities

  • June 10, 2014
  • Brad O'Mance

Sia's backSia has confirmed she's not really up for touring this album but will probably do some charity shows for dogs at some point.

Having a chat to Music Week about her wigs and lack of press pictures etc, she also said a world wide tour was probably not going to happen anytime soon:

"I’m 95% set on [not touring]. I will probably do a couple of shows for charity — maybe for dogs. I have to be clever about it because it’s kind of stressful for me. I’ve been in recovery for three-and-a-half years and the touring is kind of destabil­ising. It’s such hard work."

She went on:

"Thirteen years of touring wore on me and now I’m really trying to create a very stable, con­sist­ent life that involves ritual and routine. The plan is maybe one-offs here and there, but not touring from city to city, no way."

Asked about fame and things like that, she basically said that a lot of her friends love it but she's a bit bored of it actually.

"I want to be suc­cess­ful and I want to be acknow­ledged," she mused. "It’s val­id­at­ing to have people play your records. But the part that I’m not inter­ested in at all, which does not feed my ego, is fame. It creates real com­plic­a­tions for me and my serenity."

Fair enough really.
