About Jake Shears

A dynamic, multi-talented artist, Jake Shears excels at revitalizing classic sounds and bringing queer culture into the mainstream. As Scissor Sisters' charismatic, proudly gay frontman, he helped craft a winning combination of '70s-style glitter rock, house music, and electroclash on albums including their self-titled 2004 debut, which won a strong following with the LGBTQ community and in the U.K., where they topped the pop charts. On his own, Shears' theater work spanned his 2017 Broadway debut in Kinky Boots and co-writing the 2022 award-winning musical Tammy Faye. All of these aspects were reflected in his solo music, which spanned the witty heartache and New Orleans homages of 2018's Jake Shears to the star-studded dance floor excursions of 2023's Last Man Dancing.
