About this Song
Music forms the core through which The Trip Sheila on 7 | Part 1 unfolds, a production rooted in the creative and cultural landscape of Indonesia, that follows the collective behind one of the nation’s most enduring music groups as they traverse a beloved route across the country’s most storied islands. The full itinerary stretches from Jogja, the group’s home base, across the water to Bali, then on to Lombok, before winding all the way back to Jogja, a round trip completed entirely by bus that takes eight full days and seven nights to complete. That journey is more than just a cross-country excursion, though; it is a deliberate, intentional space for the group to revisit the earliest days of their work in Indonesia’s music industry, a period that stretches back to the late 1990s and the turn of the 21st century, when they first began building their legacy as a central part of the nation’s creative scene.
