Scissor Sisters announce reunion tour

Scissor Sisters are embarking on a reunion tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their self-titled debut album.

Three of the band's members - vocalist Jake Shears, guitarist Del Marquis and multi-instrumentalist Scott 'Babydaddy' Hoffman - are reuniting for a tour of the U.K. and Ireland in May 2025.

"Exciting news, for the first time in over a decade, we will come together again, live next May across the UK and Ireland," they wrote on social media on Thursday. "And for the first time ever, our debut album Scissor Sisters will be performed in full in celebration of its 20th anniversary - alongside all the other Scissor hits from along the way."

The I Don't Feel Like Dancin' hitmakers last performed together at London's Roundhouse in October 2012, months after the release of their fourth and final album Magic Hour.

Addressing the absence of his co-vocalist Ana Matronic, Shears told The Independent, "I think it just didn't line up. It's not something that she wanted to do at this moment in time. And I didn't want that to keep us from coming out and playing these songs."

The tour will kick off at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham on 16 May before stopping in Bournemouth, Manchester, London, Leeds and Birmingham in England, Glasgow in Scotland, Cardiff in Wales and Belfast in North Ireland. It will wrap up at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland on 28 May.

When asked about their future beyond the tour, the Take Your Mama singer replied, "I think the door is open. It could just be the 20th anniversary - or it could be the beginning of something really exciting. We're doing it to have fun and enjoy ourselves."

Tickets go on pre-sale on 6 November ahead of a general sale on 8 November.
