Shakespears Sister have released a collection of their best songs plus two new tracks on the album‘Singles Party’ from London Records. The band reunited following a 26 year falling out between creative collaborators Siobhan Fahey and Marcella Detroit.

The album release of ‘Singles Party’) includes new songs, “All the Queens’ Horses” and “C U Next Tuesday” as well as classic hits from their back catalog.

‘Singles Party’ is made up of Shakespears Sister singles, including ‘Stay’, ‘You’re History’, ‘Hello (Turn Your Radio On)’, and ‘I Don’t Care’.

In addition, Shakespears Sister have launched part two of their three-part podcast,Ride Again: The Shakespears Sister Story. Narrated by Kate Hutchinson the podcast explores the band’s history as one of music’s most subversive duos, their iconic number one single Stay, how they eventually fell apart in the early 90s – and then came back together, with brand new music, after 26 years.

Their video was directed by renowned creator, Sophie Muller who took this on as a passion project. Sophie shares a personal relationship with Shakespears Sister and wanted to give this reconciliation the breadth and weight it deserved. The video, shot in Joshua Tree is a powerful representation of the true meaning of forgiveness, redemption, and deep friendship.

The deluxe version of their album features another unreleased track ‘Cat Worship’ and remixes of ‘You’re History’ and ‘You Made Me Come To This’ remixed by Catz ‘n Dogz and HMD Pulsatron respectively.

The reunited duo will also do select dates in the UK including a night at the iconic London Palladium in the fall and will spend the balance of the summer promoting the record in the US with visits planned to NYC in early August as well as select events in Los Angeles.

A new EP is also planned for a fall release with new original tracks.
