‘Baby Come Home’follows the euphoric Calvin Harris-produced single ‘Only The Horses’, which hit the charts following Scissor Sisters’ live performance on The Voice and two intimate sold out shows at Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
 
‘Magic Hour’ is the result of a series of team-ups between Scissor Sisters – Jake Shears, Babydaddy, Ana Matronic and Del Marquis - and a whole host of stellar artists, writers and producers, includingAzealia Banks, Calvin Harris, Stuart Price, Pharrell Williams,Diplo and Alex Ridha, the German electronic music producer and DJ behind BoysNoize.
 
Following the release of ‘Magic Hour’and the success of album track ‘Let’s Have a Kiki’, Scissor Sisters have picked up even more celebrity fans including Anne Hathaway, who casually referenced a ‘kiki’ on Late Show with David Letterman in the US:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDVUJcJR0Fc
