The singer, artist, musician and broadcaster has garnered world fame in her role co-fronting the glam-pop-dance group Scissor Sisters.
Performing in clubs in San Francisco and New York, Matronic met and then joined Scissor Sisters after the group played their first gig at one of the venues where she was working.
The band saw its greatest success in the UK, topping the singles charts with the hit song I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’ and reaching number one with its first and second albums.
Musical collaboration
Matronic went on to collaborate with a number of artists, including Mark Ronson, New Order and Duran Duran. Away from performance, she has mentored budding artists on The Voice, commentated on the BBC coverage of the Eurovision Song Contest and hosted her own regular disco-orientated show on Radio 2.
