Scissor Sisters In Concert

Formed in 2001, Scissor Sisters may well be the last band standing from the New York electroclash scene that blew up in 2004. That year, the group's B-side "Comfortably Numb," a cover of the Pink Floyd track, become a worldwide hit and pushed vocalists Jake Shears and Ana Matronic, multi-instrumentalist Baby Daddy and guitarist Del Marquis to the top of pop's A-list. U2's Bono even called Scissor Sisters "the best pop group in the world at the moment."

Today at noon ET, Scissor Sisters will bring a stadium-sized sound to the relatively tiny World Cafe Live stage in Philadelphia -- and you can listen to the whole show live as it happens. You can bet the band will perform songs from its new record, Night Work, which has already sold a million copies in the U.K. alone.
