[3] After graduating from Phillips Academy, Andover in 1988, [4] Sheik studied semiotics at Brown University; [5] while at Brown, he played guitar in a band with fellow Brown student Lisa Loeb. Following his graduation from Brown in 1992, he moved to Los Angeles. [3]

Early in his musical career, Sheik played guitar for other artists, including Liz and Lisa (with Elizabeth Mitchell and Lisa Loeb). Sheik also played on His Boy Elroy's 1993 album through his connections from a fellow Brown alum, Tracee Ellis Ross. [6]

Singer-songwriter

In 1996, Sheik released his self-titled debut album, which was certified gold. [7] The album featured the hit single "Barely Breathing", which peaked at number 16 [8] and remained on the Billboard Hot 100 for 55 consecutive weeks.
