The Scissor Sisters are set to launch their fourth studio album, Magic Hour, on May 28.

The band, whose hits include “Any Which Way” and “I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’,” will support the new release with a North American tour this summer, with three scheduled stops in Canada.

They will play Vancouver on June 20, Toronto on June 28 and Montreal on June 29.

Xtra caught up with the band when they were last in Toronto. A portion of the interview can be seen in the video below.
