Scissor Sisters reunite without Ana Matronic, this is explained

During the last few days, scissors with heels, that is, the Scissor Sisters logo, had appeared in some parts of the United Kingdom. The group recognized on networks that something would be announced today and it was.

The American group, which especially triumphed in the United Kingdom given its disco and pop character, reunites after a decade for a dozen concerts that will take place in the United Kingdom, plus one in Ireland. It is specified that they will play their entire debut, and the “greatest hits.” The disappointment is that such a meeting will not include its female co-leader, Ana Matronic. Clearly in its teaser you can read that the concert will be by Jake Shears, Babydaddy and Del Marquis. Of course, the opening act will be Alison Goldfrapp.

A few hours after the announcement, Ana Matronic sent a statement to explain that she cannot participate in this meeting because she has been immersed in the production of a rather complex podcast about history, Good Time Sallies.

“Due to the signed contracts and agreed schedules regarding this commitment, the timing of the Scissor Sisters reunion does not allow me to join my bandmates for this tour.” However, he wishes them luck: “I wish the band and our fans all the best. I will be there in spirit to have a kiki with you.”

Scissor Sisters swept their debut in 2004 in our country, visiting festivals such as Primavera Sound and the FIB. There were their iconic version of Pink Floyd and hits like ‘Filthy/Gorgeous’, ‘Take Your Mama’ or ‘Laura’. They managed to make their second album a successful album thanks to the great success of ‘I Don’t Feel Like Dancing’, but things began to get complicated from the third onwards, increasingly immersed in the EDM of the 2010s, which did not suit them. very good. When they timidly went viral the fun ‘Let’s Have a Kiki’ – from their last album so far, ‘Magic Hour’ – they were already focused on their LGTB+ audience, when in principle they were a generalist group.
