Scissor Sisters + Sammy Jo

Lady Gaga’s runaway success has given every dance-pop act in the world reason to believe it might be next in line for a massive mainstream breakthrough. New York’s Scissor Sisters actually deserve it: This irresistible glam-pop outfit just released its third terrific long-player in a row (Night Work), and has been putting on spectacular live shows for more than half a decade; moreover, the band’s fame in England is already of the aboveground variety. After they complete their current North American tour, Scissor Sisters head to Europe, where they’re scheduled to play London’s 20,000-capacity O2 arena.
