Captured on June 22 2010 in London, One Day in the Life of Jake Shears finds the Scissor Sisters singer in bed at St Martins Lane hotel at 8:15 am, and follows him throughout his day in black and white photos; showering, a BBC radio session, lunch with composer Nico Muhly, Akiko, and Jonathan Pierce of The Drums, off to the famous Brixton Academy. Here we see Jake trying out new stage clothing by designer Gareth Pugh, followed by a sound-check and pre-show chat with producer Stuart Price. The images then burst into gorgeous color as Jake and his Sisters take to the stage and dazzle all with the first concert of their “Night Work” world tour! Returning to the black and white world, Jake jumps in a car back to the hotel, dinner in bed and finally to sleep. This book is a must have for any fan of the Scissor Sisters, with accompanying text contribution by Jake Shears himself, introduction by Elton John and afterword by Kylie Minogue
