Scissor Sisters’ Jake Shears to publish autobiography
By Andy Malt | Published on Friday 16 March 2018
Scissor Sisters’ vocalist Jake Shears is publishing his autobiography. Titled ‘Boys Keep Swinging’, it will be out on 29 Mar. Shears will be in the UK in May to read it to you personally. By which I mean at public events attended by other people. He won’t just show up at your house, book in hand, ready to read.
“I’ve written a book”, says Shears, even though I’ve already told you he has. “Been working on it for years and I’m THRILLED to finally share it with you”.
He continues: “As many of you know, I’m a big reader. Books are one of the most important things in my life and writing one has always been a dream of mine. Creating this thing was a wild, intense ride, and it has proved difficult to stop tinkering with it. I think similar to an album, these things never feel actually finished until the day you announce it to the world. Well… it’s officially done now and I’m immensely proud of it”.
The readings will take place in various English cities on the following dates:
3 May: London, Waterstone’s Piccadilly
4 May: Hove, Waterstone’s
5 May: Birmingham, Town Hall
