Unless your “2020 pandemic resolution” was to disconnect from all social media, you have heard both Sheena’s angelic voice, and heard her contagious laugh at some point during your quarantine.  Videos of Sheena’s hilarious “Interrupted Series” (you know, the ones where she sings popular songs at her piano and is heckled by “The Real Indian Dad” off-screen) first surfaced on TikTok in April 2020.  In the nine months since, they have garnered over 600 million views across her social media platforms (with her current average now at 100 million per month on TikTok alone).  Some of the original singers of the songs Sheena has performed have participated in the madness, resulting in collaborations with the likes of Andy Grammer (Honey I’m Good) and JP Saxe (If The World Was Ending)  – all of whom have been featured in Sheena’s videos.  She has been featured in press across the globe for sharing her positive spirit, and unique marriage of music and humor, particularly during such difficult times.  But don’t let the playfulness fool you – Sheena is very much hard at work in her studio recording her debut EP which is scheduled for release early this year.  

In this episode you’ll hear:

• Sheena shares her journey as an artist before hitting 150 million views on accident. (3:27)

• How Sheena’s bravery to learn new social media platforms and start before she was ready, led to creating content people needed. (15:38)

• Different celebrities Sheena was able to connect with and even feature on her Tik Tok show during a time the world was shut down. (26:27)
