Ana Matronic is an American musician and the female lead singer for the Scissor Sisters. Her stage name is said to be due to "a deep and abiding love of robots".

Prior to moving to New York City, Lynch lived in San Francisco, California, where she performed at the drag club Trannyshack and reached the finals of the Miss Trannyshack pageant. It was her experience at Trannyshack that inspired her to start the club Knockoff on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, intended as a "knockoff" version of Trannyshack. She joined Scissor Sisters, founded by Jake Shears and Babydaddy, after they played their first live gig at the club. She has stated that in her eyes, the objective of the band is "about people displaying their fantasies on the outside, trying to break out of the everyday, and look like their dreams." In the fan community for the Scissor Sisters, those fans who hold a special affinity for Ana are known as "nuns". A unique following of both homosexual men and heterosexual women who are attracted to Ana term themselves "Anasexual". In 2005, she was featured on the New Order single, "Jetstream". The single was taken from the band's album, Waiting for the Sirens' Call. In May 2009, Matronic performed on the glass harmonica at the New Museum in NYC in Auroville, a multimedia ritual tribute to an experimental community dedicated to the guru Sri Aurobindo.

Ana appears as a guest vocalist on the Mark Ronson produced track 'Safe (In the Heat of the Moment)' from the December 21, 2010, release All You Need Is Now from the band Duran Duran. It was announced on 4 April 2012 by the BBC that Ana would appear as an advisor on the new UK version of The Voice, pairing up to assist Jessie J.
