Scissor Sisters
Artist Overview
These New York art shock-rockers, formed in 2003, take camp icons like Elton John, the Bee Gees, and Billy Joel as their musical foundation for a sound that's rooted in the dance clubs of their hometown. On their debut, self-titled album they reinterpreted Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb," castigated former mayor Rudy Giuliani, and hymned the city's gay cruising scene. More than a mere gay novelty act, their sophisticated sound draws on a wide range of musical influences from throughout the last three decades of the 20th century, a fact reinforced by their equally eclectic and ambitious sophomore album, 2006's TA-DAH, featuring the British #1 hit "I Don't Feel Like Dancing," penned specifically for them by the aforementioned John.
