Scissor Sisters are reuniting for the first time in over a decade with a 2025 UK and Ireland tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of their iconic debut album, Scissor Sisters. Jake Shears, Babydaddy, and Del Marquis will perform their self-titled album in full across major arenas, along with selected hits from their later albums, Ta-Dah, Night Work, and Magic Hour. Longtime vocalist Ana Matronic won’t join the tour due to other commitments.
Tour Details and Inspiration
- Inspiration for the Tour: Frontman Jake Shears shared that the idea came after a lockdown viewing of their 2007 concert film, which reminded them of the excitement surrounding their debut.
- Queer Representation in the Mainstream: Babydaddy reflected on the band’s impact, noting how Scissor Sisters helped bring queer culture into mainstream music during a time with fewer LGBTQ+ voices.
