Shakespears Sister is an alternative[1] pop and rock musical duo that was formed in 1988 by Irish singer-songwriter Siobhan Fahey, a former member of Bananarama. Shakespears Sister was initially a solo act but became a duo by 1989, with the addition of American musician Marcella Detroit. Together they released two top-ten albums and a string of top-forty hits, including the 1992 single "Stay", which remained at No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart for eight weeks.[2] Detroit was let go from the band in 1993, leaving Fahey as the sole member again, until the latter ended the project in 1996.[3] After working under her own name for some years, Fahey revived the Shakespears Sister moniker in 2009.[4] In 2019, Fahey and Detroit reunited as Shakespears Sister for a tour and released the singles "All the Queen's Horses" and "When She Finds You", and the EP Ride Again.[5]
