Scissorkiss

Scissorkiss is the band of singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Jacobious Lovebone. Born Jake Dallas in New York City, Lovebone first emerged as the vocalist, frontman, and founding member of Bastardane, a hard-rock trio formed in Savannah, Georgia, in 2019. As co-writer of Is This Rage? (2022) and Catatonic Symphony (2024), he became known for volatile live performances, unfiltered lyricism, and a stage presence that blurred the line between chaos and theater. After years of relentless touring and growing internal tensions, Lovebone’s chapter with Bastardane came to an abrupt end with his removal in 2024. Rather than disappear, he turned the fallout into fuel. Launching a solo career in 2025, Lovebone introduced a sound that was both familiar and fearless. Songs like Bow Steadily and Swingers revealed an artist unconcerned with expectations, trading convention for raw honesty and proving that his voice could stand on its own. Today, Lovebone channels his vision through Scissorkiss, serving as the band’s sole songwriter, lyricist, recording artist, and producer. Now based in Hollywood, Los Angeles, Scissorkiss continues to push forward from the ground up.
