Hello world! My name is Sheila Star Rose. I am originally from Saginaw, Michigan and moved out to California to attend a music production school called Pyramid. There I learned about the wonders of sound and was immersed into a community of music makers. It was at this time that I started writing and recording my own songs. The piano is my main instrument along with my voice and I love experimenting with all genres of music. At a very young age I knew that I was put on Earth to make music and I continue to follow this path even when the road presents many hurdles. For several years, I struggled to play my own music and had trouble remembering chords and lyrics. In 2023 I went to my annual eye exam and couldn’t see the first three letters. To everyone’s surprise, I was diagnosed with a massive rare brain cyst. The pressure of the cyst significantly changed my personality and eventually left me in a state of psychosis. In June 2023 I had brain surgery and woke up from it realizing I was gone for the past couple years. I have huge chunks of memory missing from that time. It was similar to the sci-fi movies where the alien takes over a person's brain and they have no control. Luckily, the alien was defeated and I came back. I started writing songs again one week after brain surgery and making music has fast tracked my cognitive skills and has been my therapy as I process it all. New record coming in 2024!!! Oh yeah, and it's good to be back ; ) www.sheilastar.com
