Meet the Music Makers!

They love to mix different kinds of music together, like sparkly glam rock and dancey disco! It's like they have a secret recipe for making everyone want to dance.

From New York to the Top!

These amazing musicians first got together in the exciting nightlife of New York City. They became super famous when they made a disco version of a song called 'Comfortably Numb'. It was so good that it was nominated for a big award!

Their first album was a HUGE hit, especially in a place called the UK. It was the best-selling album of the year, which is like winning the biggest trophy at school! They even won three awards called BRIT Awards.

Songs That Make You Move!

The Scissor Sisters have a special talent for making songs that get your feet tapping and your body grooving. Their song 'Filthy/Gorgeous' was their very first number one hit on a special dance music chart. They also made another album called 'Ta-Dah' which had a song called 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin''.

Can you guess what that song makes you want to do? They've performed all over the world, and their shows are known for being super exciting and a little bit wild, in a fun way!

Friends with Famous Stars!
