Jake Shears Premieres New Music Video for “Big Bushy Mustache”
American pop-rock band Scissor Sisters' lead singer Jake Shears will release his self-titled debut solo album on August 10, 2018.
He debuted a new music video for “Big Bushy Mustache”, directed by Mac Boucher, from the album on August 6th.
The clip features Josh Homme, who is a frontman of American rock band Queens of the Stone Age. The video was shot in New Orleans.
He said of his longtime friendship with Josh Homme, “He’s like a brother to me and just inspires me to no end. I think he’s an amazing man. And musically, I think he’s one of the best alive.”
The song is the second single off of the album following "Sad Song Backwards".
The new album is his first project since Scissor Sisters’ 2012 album "Magic Hour".- Jake Shears told OUT about the album in an interview;
"This whole thing has been a big endeavor. I paid for this whole thing myself. So I had to be damn sure that I completely stand behind everything on it. It’s no record label’s money that I’m playing with. It’s all mine. And I didn’t play with it. It’s serious. I gave myself a lot of freedom with it and made it exactly how I wanted to make it, and my dream is to be able to do it again. I would love to make three more records that continues this story. It may sound cheesy, but it’s a new chapter for me.
So it’s exciting. That’s the bottom line: I’m really fucking excited." -
